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 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 (32 years full time making boxes) made in Colorado, USA.
All of my designs are original, and copy protected.

5 out of 5 starsVery high quality and beautiful on it's own. I wanted a pill case that didn't look so tacky sitting out and this was perfect!

5 out of 5 starsI love these pill boxes. I keep giving mine to friends and needing to buy another. My selfish question. I travel and I want to bring my beautiful box with me. I've figured out how to use rubber bands to hold it together... but is there maybe a way to secure it to travel that matches the beauty of the box. I don't ever want to return to plastic pill boxes.

5 out of 5 starsthis is my second one of these, not because the first one broke or anything but because my partner loved it so much i got him one! its lid turns nicely but is still secure, and i like that it has the lip to keep it on if it's jostled. the abalone dot in the lid is really pretty too!

5 out of 5 starsPictures do not do this beautiful work any justice! The craftsmanship is truly exceptional; I am sure it is imitated, but the quality CANNOT be duplicated. Thank you for a stunning and practical day/night pill box!

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:
