Making Large Wood Jewelry Boxes with the Rare Bird's Eye Maple
Large wood jewelry boxes will be absolutely perfect for you if you have a large and expensive collection of precious jewelry. Considering the monetary and aesthetic value of the contents of the box, you may want to go in for a box that is also made of expensive and rare wood, and adorned with intricate handcrafts like marquetry, and other embellishments.
Jewelry boxes are made using several types of wood. You will be able to get a fairly good and pricey looking box made with rubber wood or some other locally available wood but with exquisite marquetry work done on it using rare burlwood and veneers. Bird's Eye Maple is a very rare and expensive wood that is frequently used in marquetry and adds charm to the rather dull exterior.
The Bird’s Eye Maple is not a separate wood in its own right but rather an aberrant but natural phenomenon of the Hard Sugar Maple (Acer suchrum). The patterns are visually appealing as they remind you of swirling birds' eyes. If not for the absence of knots that are quite common to burls, it would probably be mistaken for a burl too.
It is a native of the North Eastern part of North America and is distinctive because of the swirling bird eyes that appear a centimeter apart from each other and measure about 3 to 5 mm across. It has a very porous texture and is extremely light in color. The Bird’s Eye Maple veneer is extremely delicate and has a gloss finish that makes it very attractive for making jewelry boxes.
Bird’s Eye Maple is not easy to work with because of its divergent patterns making it difficult to cut and carve freely. The newer user friendly machines practically saved it from disappearing completely from the scene; so it can be said that it was only the major advances in technology that saved the Bird's Eye Maple. There was a time, it seems, when carpenters used the Bird's Eye Maple as firewood as they just couldn't work with it! This amazing wood is now used in exquisite marquetry to make an ordinary box stand out from the rest.
It adds sophistication to the box and makes it look very elegant. So you just cannot go wrong with a jewelry box with exquisite marquetry with Birds Eye Maple . It just might turn out to be more attractive than your jewelry!
