This hope chest was commissioned for a good friend with four children. It includes a willow inlay motif with the kids' initials inlayed on the interior lids. This hope chest also features hand-cut dovetails and carved handles.

I was fortunate to have this piece featured in the August 2008 issue of Fine Woodworking.

Dimensions: 34” deep x 24” wide x 16” tall.

Materials: Bubinga | Wenge | Mother of pearl
