This box is made from spalted Maple. It's about 3 inches tall and almost 2 inches wide, made from a section of a branch which I turned on the lathe. I gave it a green sprayed-on flocking lining. Burned-in accent lines on the side at the top and bottom, and an attempt at a little chatter-tool texturing on the top. The end grain in this piece of wood wasn't hard enough to get good texturing with that tool. I ended up with a wooded box that looks like it's been around a long time. I'm OK with that.
