Hello, I am a custom furniture maker who will build your shadow box using kiln‑dried hardwood (choose from cherry, white oak, or walnut) milled to exact internal/external dimensions, with splined or box‑joint corners for strength, and a routed groove for a sliding acrylic or glass front. The natural finish will be achieved by hand‑sanding to 220 grit and applying a coat of Danish oil or clear shellac, leaving the wood’s native colour and texture untouched. I will also install a secure back panel with pre‑drilled keyhole hangers for wall mounting. I can deliver the finished shadow box within 5–7 business days, and I will provide a set of detailed build photos for your approval before final sanding and finishing. My portfolio includes custom shadow boxes, jewelry cases, and small keepsake chests – examples are attached. Best regards.

Hi there, I am a Licensed Architect in Multiple states with 11 years of experience, providing custom wood shadow box design and build coordination. In my opinion, this project should be approached with careful layout control, clean joinery, and finish selection so the final piece holds true to the requested 15.5" x 4.5" x 5.5" dimensions, with tight corner alignment, smooth sanding through fine grit, and a natural wood finish that brings out the grain without looking overworked. Deliverables: - Custom wood shadow box built to exact dimensions. - Natural finish with clean, refined surface detailing. - Careful attention to fit, proportion, and craftsmanship. - Progress updates during the build. - Final photos of the completed piece. I’ve worked on custom, detail-oriented projects where accuracy and presentation both matter, and I understand how important it is that this piece feels handcrafted and polished, not mass-produced. I’d be happy to share samples of similar work and give you a realistic completion timeline once I know a bit more about the wood species you’d like and whether you want the box fully enclosed or with a front opening. Via private chatting or meeting, I will provide the creative idea and good tech solution for your project. Best regards, Jonathan

Hello I can create a custom-made wooden shadow box built precisely to your specifications, with a clean natural finish and careful attention to proportion, craftsmanship, and detail. I specialize in custom woodworking and small-format display pieces, and I will construct your shadow box at 15.5” (L) × 4.5” (D) × 5.5” (H) using solid wood, ensuring strong joints, smooth edges, and a refined natural grain finish that highlights the material without heavy staining or artificial coating. The box will be built with precision-cut dimensions to ensure clean geometry and proper depth for display purposes. I will also sand and finish all surfaces to a smooth, tactile quality suitable for home or professional display.
