Item # CB175

Handmade in Western Australia by Chris Busby. The box features a very attractive Jarrah case and a lid panel of beautifully figured Tasmanian Leatherwood.

The box has a removable tray. Both the tray and the inner base are lined with upholstery fabric that will prove as long-lasting as it is attractive.

The lid is hinged such that it stops at just over 90 degrees and the overall dimensions of the box are 300 x 185 x 105 mm in height.

The box pictured is the one being purchased.
