A couple of Boxwood Box's inspired by the work of George Watkins.
C&C as always

Looks like a good match on the grain George. Nice shape too.

Hi George,
Nice couple of boxes the first one I cannot figure out the fit of the face of the lid to the face of the Box it may be the shadow it almost
looks like a dark bead.

I'm not sure I like the lid on the top one George, it's a bit flat for the curve of the box itself.
The lower one's lid sits far better in shape and size.

Thank you for commenting Bryan.
I think there are improvements I could make but as I don't make box's very often they will have to waite to another day

Likewise George, I don't make enough either. So who am I to talk!

Like the shape of both George, in fact I like the lid on the first one more than the second, it all down to personal taste
