Found a long-lost board of White oak while rummaging around in a pile of mahogany in my wood shop. No telling how many years it has been there. I certainly don't remember buying it.
So here it is. Not a flashy wood by any means. Rather hard and heavy. A bit rough on the chisels. An open grained wood that makes it difficult to get a smooth, shiny finish. But it has a quiet authority about it.
Hand cut dovetails, ebony lift and tray detail, Brusso hinges, and an oil finish. It measures 12.5" x 6.75" x 4.25".
