Created with 210 cold pressed mahogany veneers with maple and birdseye maple. Glued with polyurethane then cut and shaped by hand, and finished with orange shellac. It features hidden barrel hinges and a key lock. Imagine 210 sheets of anything. And then imagine them bent to the will of the designer and craftsman. True, wood has been bent before. But Strata is taking the natural design (growth rings) and improves on it. Creating a rich texture, high strength and unique look. Perfect gifting option for the discerning.
