Incense Box Close-Up

Looks like a major blizzard is getting ready to roll over the New England states this week, so I took time away from my busy preparations to finish making some incense storage and burner boxes. This one is made from a solid block of figured maple which I hollowed out to hold several dozen incense sticks. The lid is made of some wavy grained walnut I reclaimed, and features an ash trough for the smoldering incense stick, and a circular indent for ease of sliding the lid open.

 

This and a few other boxes I finished this weekend are listed in my online shop (please refer to the Etsy information in my profile).

 

Now wish me luck with all the snow we're expecting this week - up to 3 feet or more!!
