This box is so beautiful, the box itself is a gift. The box shown here is made using Red Cedar, Oak and Walnut. With it's inlay of Cedar and Oak, the ribbon detail adds a wonderful finishing touch to a piece that lends itself to becoming a heirloom piece that can be passed down.

To make the striped ribbon inlay, strips of Oak and Red Cedar, trimmed with Walnut, are laminated together and then cut on a diagonal.
