Small maple lidded box

Visitors are gone and I had the shed to myself today. To celebrate I made this small lidded box from some very figured Queensland maple. Maple doesn't take a thread very well so I fitted some Burdekin plum into the lid and bottom for the hand chased threads. The box measures 60mm diameter x 55mm high. Finished to 1200# and Ubeaut Glow. The lid features a mother of pearl insert and some texturing.
