One of our favorite box restorers just finished another. Txinkman took an old Gerstner and turned it into jewelry box for his wife. I know... But man, is this a nice box. ...

Txinkman's wife here. I just opened the jewelry box and find it beautiful. I am not the type of woman who would display a pink Coach jewelry box with ballerinas and flowers on it, but am definitely the type of woman who will cherish a gorgeous piece of work her husband spent months making. In the past, he has use darker wood colors and dyes, and I have occasionally commented on how I prefer the more golden tones of a warm wood, not knowing he was actually listening and took my preferences to heart when restoring this one for me. I love it love it love it!
