This was the ‘Jewelry box with Marquetry‘ class at William Ng School of Fine Woodwork in Los Angeles, where everyone designed and built an walnut box with a marquetry lid. The different designs everyone generated were quite astounding!  Most had never done marquetry before and just about everyone finished their boxes by the fifth day.

The doggie box won first place (Check out the reflection of the eyes!) I will be doing this class next year, and again, it will be limited to twelve people.
