Exterior:

The sides of the box are made from a single board with waterfall mitre joints. That allows the natural pattern of the wood grain to flow all the way around the box. Grain is matched on three corners.

Solid Santos Rosewood drawer pulls.

Mitred corners reinforced with Santos Rosewood keys.

Sides are solid 1/2" (13  mm) thick Santos Rosewood

 

Top is made from solid woods into an assembly about 1/2" (13 mm) thick. It is then re-sawn into two pieces about 1/8" (3mm) thick which are laminated to both sides of 1/4" (6 mm) plywood. This construction not only makes the interior of the top as attractive as the exterior, but also prevents warping of the top.
