Walnut Tea Box with Pillow Lid (5)

It truly is been a whilst due to the fact I played with mitered boxes, and I experienced never ever created just one with splined miters ahead of, so I assumed a modest one created from a chunk of walnut would be an appropriate challenge to observe on.

The sides and base ended up minimize from a single piece of reclaimed black walnut. I organized the sides so the wood grain would glimpse steady all the way about. The little spline details ended up slash from poplar for contrast.

I poked close to the dim recesses of my workshop for a extended while prior to stumbling throughout this piece of smoky wanting walnut I made use of for the removable lid. The edges and corners have been rounded about extensively to soften its visual appeal, for a pillow-like effect.

When complete, the box was sealed with a clear epoxy end. It’s going to maintain about 30 bags of tea, or whatever you assume it should to maintain.
