Product Description
The Shakers produced oval boxes with uniformly slender sides, symmetrical joints, and neat, tight-fitting lids. Shaker Workshops oval boxes are unique because we make them on reproductions of the original forms and templates used at the Mt. Lebanon, New York Shaker community during the mid-19th century. Like the Shakers, we produce our oval boxes in eleven different sizes and we use the original Shaker numbering system (No. 11 being the smallest box and No. 1 being the largest box). This is the No. 2 size Shaker Oval Box. It is also available on this web site as part of a nest of nine Shaker Oval Boxes, for a special price. We handcraft them of select Pennsylvania cherry, secured by copper tacks. Tops and bottoms are fastened with wooden pegs. We hand rub them with several coats of oil finish and buff them until they "glow". The Shakers used oval boxes for sewing and quilting notions and for kitchen dry goods. Today, their uses are unlimited. Made in USA.

I ordered one box not sure what I would get. I was very pleasent surprised. The box is absoutely beautiful. The quality of workmanship is very impressive. The hat box could easily be a piece of art. I ordered an additional box. both are equal in quality. I would and have recommended the box to friends and family.
