Announcement    Our laser is out of service until we get a new tube...no custom engraving add ons! 07/02/20

Welcome to our Etsy Shop ! Our boxes are band saw boxes, that means they are cut from a single, solid block of wood. We use walnut, cherry and mahogany for our base woods. The boxes are embellished with slices, not veneers, of burls or other highly figured woods. Our boxes have a hand-rubbed tung oil finish and are completely lined. We also use Purple Heart for some of our smaller boxes.

We, Al and I, have been making our modified band saws boxes since 1989. We attend major Art Fairs throughout the year as well as our website. We have won numerous awards for our boxes as they are not your typical band saw boxes. A very high degree of skill is required for all the various levels in our larger jewelry boxes.

Should an item disappear from our Etsy Shop without being sold it means that it sold on the website, and art fair or from our workshop. We do have shop viewing available by appointment.

We also have our own website that you can visit http://www.burlwoodboxstore.com/

    Hooked on Boxes and Burls !

    It just happened !

    Well over 35 years ago it all started with a table saw in a duplex basement. Next thing you know our friends wanted one of whatever crude item of sliced wood we made. Huh? We were shocked ! So we tried a few local craft fairs. Success....!!!!

    Long story short, we started making boxes exclusively about 30 years ago. Our skills, tools and location have all changed drastically since the crude beginnings. We have been a full time box only business for over 25 years.

    We have many repeat customers or "collectors" as we like to call them. We attend fewer than 10 high quality art fairs per year now as we are getting older. We have won numerous awards for our boxes over the years.

    Thanks for visiting our Box Shop BurlWoodBox on Etsy :)

      We, Al and I, have been making boxes exclusively for almost 30 years now. In our past lives we were plant managers and biochemists :) We sell our boxes online as well as selected art fairs.
