Announcement    COVID-19 NOTICE
Due to the current environment with the COVID-19 virus, shipments are taking longer to reach their destinations. The shipping carriers are working hard to meet their commitments, but shipments may be delayed. This includes Priority and first class. I have seen Express take an extra day.
I am still shipping most orders the day I receive it (which is usually a day ahead of time in order to help compensate for the Post Office delays).

All of the meticulously handmade exotic wood urns, jewelry boxes, and pill boxes listed here are original works of art/designs made by me, Eugene Watson. They are in stock and available for immediate shipping.

I design and make all of my unique sculptural boxes using the finest exotic and domestic hardwoods available. The finish I use has been refined over the past 30 years to be durable, beautiful, and smooth to the touch.

Many of my designs are being knocked off here on Etsy. Make no mistake, if you buy from me you are purchasing an original work of art by an American artisan (30 years full time making boxes) made in Colorado, USA.

Eugene Watson, maker of sculptural boxes.

I began Watson Woodworks in 1990 in an old 1200 square foot loft just outside of Chinatown in Chicago, Illinois. Prior to woodworking, I designed electronic components for the black boxes in military airplanes. My interest in woodworking evolved from my childhood and was influenced by my father and grandfather. I chose to pursue woodworking over an electronics career because I am able to express my creativity with my hands and design innovative pieces in a relatively short period of time. I am now recognized nationally and internationally for my boxes.

My boxes involve the use of very traditional tools such as bench chisels, planes, and files, to high tech modern machinery. All of my designs utilize my engineering skills in math, geometry, trigonometry, drawing, etc. I machine my own metal parts and utilize leather and shell in many of my designs. The woods I use are exotic and domestic figured hardwoods of the highest quality.

Frequently asked questions
Care instructions

The finish I use is a CAB acrylic lacquer from Sherwin Williams with the vinyl sealer base coat. I often use paste wax with steel wool to make the piece feel better to the touch and to bring out the sheen.
Very little care if any is necessary aside from removing dust occasionally. You can use an air canister if you like. You may also use any wax type polish to bring out the sheen. If alcohol or a chemical gets on the piece, wipe off immediately. Letting a chemical sit will ruin the finish.
The leather lining I use is a synthetic suede called Ultrasuede. It can be wiped clean with a damp cloth.

Custom and personalized orders

Custom orders are accepted based on wood type only, unless a large quantity is desired. My boxes are all made in batches and are not conducive to size changes. I can do monograms as seen in this listing:
