Extract from cover flap of book:
If you ever thought of a box as just six bits of wood, think again! Inside these covers is the work of sixty-eight of the finest designer-makers from around the world.
Exquisite workmanship is only a starting point. The wide range and diversity of this collection is simply stunning from finely sculpted creations to joyous pieces which bring an immediate smile to the face, and from the lasting appeal of the classically designed jewelry box to the modern wooden hinged chest.
The designers let you into their world, sharing their thoughts, desires and aspirations. They tell what spurs them on to their next adventure in making the wooden box and the fulfilment in achieving their goals.
In this book there are over 250 colour photographs, many of them published for the first time, forming a valuable portfolio of box making and the designers who make them.
