About this Class

In this comprehensive workshop, tailored specifically for smaller projects with minimal machinery, Steven will equip students with the skills and knowledge to design and create their own exquisite, museum-grade veneered box. Learning from the esteemed Master Box Maker, Steve Parker, of SA Parker Fine Furniture & Box Maker, participants will be immersed in a curated process that spans the selection of primary and secondary woods, mastering construction techniques, achieving the perfect finish, and determining the appropriate lining for your box, whether it be a humidor, jewelry holder, stationary container, or presentation box. Our seasoned expert, Steve, has an illustrious career history, having created numerous museum-grade boxes for a discerning clientele that includes royalty, acclaimed movies, and top-tier jewelry and firearms engravers. Embrace the opportunity to benefit from Steve’s unrivaled expertise by staying for the weekend class, “Lining your Box,” where Steve will offer a dedicated session on lining your museum-grade box, whether it be with Ultra-soft Suede for jewelry/stationary boxes or Spanish Cedar for Humidors. Begin your journey towards crafting boxes that are not just containers, but works of art.
