I think the finish is marvellous. The colours are lovely, if a bit strong for my taste. But to be quite honest, the shape doesn't do a lot for me. Purely personal taste, I just think it's a bit square.

I'm never sure what it is about your boxes, George, but your shape is always recognisable and a joy to see......( a bit like another George who we all know and love
)

As Always George your boxes are intriguing with the blend of wood and resin.
like the shape and colour of this one very much
Kind Regards

Superb work George, there are only a limited few box makers that I admire, you are fast becoming one of them.

George,
I've always admired your ability with resin. The swirls in the resin in the top photo almost look like wood grain where a branch came through.
