This box is made from magnificent Irish ripple sycamore - an effect that occurs when the wood grain undulates, reflecting light in a way that creates a gentle watery movement across the surface.
The lid is a colourful contemporary interpretation of traditional straw marquetry, composing a rhythmic mosaic of hand-cut and dyed rye straw. Each segment is carefully arranged in an interlocking pattern, creating a sense of movement and balance across the surface. The natural sheen of the straw catches the light differently from every angle, giving the piece a subtle luminosity.
The box is lined with beige faux suede.
Dimensions: 170mm x 170mm x 80mm
Handcrafted in Co. Wicklow, Ireland
