Announcement
Our workshop will be shutting down in two weeks ( 12/21/2022). Last batch of our boxes will be lined next week. I will continue to upload boxes we have in progress or already completed. Any boxes with inlays are all listed, no more available. NO RETURNS OR EXCHANGES!!!!! Over 30 years of making boxes has come to an end!
We are not accepting custom orders. All pen sized boxes we have remaining are listed in our shop. Also we are now out of Redwood Burl. We are not purchasing any more. We will NOT BE ACCEPTING RETURNS ON BOXES PURCHASED AFTER 04/30/2022.
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, Al and I, have been making our modified band saws boxes since 1989. 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 or from our workshop.
We also have our own website that you can visit http://www.burlwoodboxstore.com/

5 out of 5 starsIt's beautiful! If you're looking for a different gift that is useful too, do not hesitate to purchase one of these "one of a kind" boxes. You will not be disappointed.

5 out of 5 starsThe three little boxes I ordered are all just lovely: the finishes are smooth rather than shiny, the lids fit perfectly, and the wood grains really feature the beauty of each wood type. I was also very pleasantly surprised at the speed of delivery. Best of luck in your next endeavor!

Hooked on Boxes and Burls !
It just happened ! And soon it may end soon as the"box people" are cutting back and preparing to retire.
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 30 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 :)
