No. 5 Cherry retailer Painted Shaker Box - Blue and Red

retailer Handmade to exacting specification in the traditional Shaker bentwood style, this #5 box is made of cherry with hand bent sides, custom-fitted lid and base, hand-carved swallowtail “fingers” with copper tacks. The paint finish is a recent recreation of old-fashioned milk paint to give it a traditional, almost antiqued finish like the older boxes that were originally done using milk paint. The box has a barn red lid and a medium blue box. Finished inside and out with polycrylic varnish and a hand-rubbed light coat of furniture wax to protect and to show off the natural beauty of the wood. Approximate finished dimensions of the box is #5 - 10”L x 7”W x 4H. You are purchasing the actual box shown in the picture.
