Bank #B086 ©

 

This #3 sized bank was handcrafted from Ambrosia Maple Wood and trimmed with African Mahogany.  The beautiful coloration of this wood is caused by the Ambrosia Beetle. The beetle carries in the ambrosia fungus on its feet into the wood (the fungus is food for the insect's offspring when they hatch), and causes the amazing patterns on this maple.  The cast brass door is a 1906 Eagle made by the Keyless Lock Co. , and the door has been completely refinished.  The back panel of the bank has been bookmatched to reveal a beautiful pattern. The door is shown on page 185 of Jane Ingram’s Second Edition Book.  The Joinery used is a corner-post double dovetail.  This bank is coated with 4 coats of sprayed lacquer inside and out for a beautiful finish.
