Handcrafted boxes

I am a designer and maker of unique hand crafted boxes. I produce speculative work and commissions in all forms, from jewellery boxes to humidors, cufflinks boxes to watch boxes and personalised gift and presentation boxes.

Using the best of traditional craftsmanship with innovative new construction techniques, I make everything from exquisite jewellery boxes to perfume chests lined with silver leaf and ornately inlaid ring and cufflinks boxes, all beautifully contemporary with a classic twist.

The Art of Containment

I use rare and decorative veneers with innovative marquetry techniques to make beautiful and unique boxes of all sorts, from jewellery boxes to watch boxes, exquisite presentation boxes to special gift boxes for weddings and christenings. If you would like to see a greater range of the unique boxes I make, please see my dedicated website, The Art of Containment.
