This cedar wood chest is manufactured using traditional assembly methods in North Carolina by the Taylorsville Crate Co. We carefully cut, finish, and join every chest  drawing on over 30 years experience in the case and crate making craft.  Using aromatic cedar for this keepsake box and finishing with a clear lacquer coat, the natural reddish golden hue of the grain really shines.

 

Each chest has unique characteristics that vary in finish color and texture, just like individual works of art, expressing the natural trait of the cedar timber.

Taylorsville Crate has made cases and crates for over 30 years. Every chest is unique, with variations in finish color and texture.  All of our products share an attention to detail and high standards for the quality of our materials and assembly.  This Aromatic Cedar Chest has authentic leather handles and decorative iron hardware.

 

The sides of this chest are joined using a haunched box joint.  A box joint means the ends of the wood pieces are interleaved almost like dove tails. The box is then pin nailed for a super strong joint. The box joint also adds a nice decorative accent to the piece.

 

The chest itself makes a great decorating accent as well as a useful storage space.

The leather handles and iron hardware add handsome design elements for rustic, farmhouse, and transitional interiors.  This wooden chest works for bath organization, as a keepsake box, essential oil storage box, or treasure chest.
