Announcement
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.
To identify a wood, click on the wood name in the drop-down list and the corresponding photo will appear.
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 33 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 (33 years full time making boxes) made in Colorado, USA.
All of my designs are original, and copy protected.

5 out of 5 starsI purchased the redwood burl 7-day pill organizer and it is beautiful! The lid is solidly attached to the case by a strong magnet. The lid turns easily and there is plenty of space in each daily storage area for five pills. Highly recommended!

5 out of 5 starsThe 7 day am/pm pill box I purchased for my wife was a big hit with her. The quality is nothing short of outstanding! Perfect craftsmanship and Eugene was super helpful in customizing it a bit for me. The engraving was high quality and shipping was super fast, I couldn't believe how fast I received it. Highly recommended

5 out of 5 starsThis is my third purchase from this shop. As always, craftsmanship is flawless, shipping was fast, and they easily accommodated my request to swap out one lid for a different wood. Excellent shop!!

5 out of 5 starsI purchased the standard AM/PM in bubinga. It’s exquisite. I even love the smell. Probably the best purchase I’ve made on Etsy thus far.

5 out of 5 starsThank you so much, Eugene, for humoring me! I love this case, but so does my husband (conveniently also named Eugene) who has purloined it for his right-before-bed meds, so it lives atop his bedside chest. The case is, clearly, gorgeous, and so very well made: easy to use, and keeps the pills contained + separate. Eugene was also accommodating of an exchange I made, and then my wanting to tell him about my husband. Over + above customer service! The photo is of my (5'4" female) hand holding it, to give an idea the size. I'm not a clever enough photographer to capture the beauty of the burl.

5 out of 5 starsGorgeous! Makes me feel good about having to take so many dang pills. My only complaint is that it's a little hard to get your finger in there just right to pop it open to refill; fine for me, but not sure my arthritic mom could do it. Idk of a better solution tho...

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:
