Tiny Wooden Box

This box is about 2" x 2 1/8" x 7/8" and not quite square. The square sides are Mahogany the rest of the wood looks like rosewood but I don't think it is. The only hardware is the steel pin in the hinge. One corner of the box has finger joints. I rounded the fingers on them and drilled through them for the hinge pin. I did that before I glued the square sides on so I could hide the hinge pin. There's no closing latch or hardware, just a friction fit holding the lid closed. The finish is hand rubbed linseed oil and wood wax.
