Description
This wooden trinket box is made to keep two watches side by side, each on its own soft grey cushion, under a clear window set into the lid. The rectangular box is finished in a warm mid-brown wood with a visible grain, and a wooden divider runs down the centre so the two cushions sit in their own compartments. Small gold-tone pieces dress each corner, and a gold-tone clasp at the front keeps the lid closed. It is a compact size, 6.2cm tall, 10cm wide and 18.8cm deep, so it sits neatly on a dressing table without crowding it.
The window means you can see both watches at a glance without lifting the lid, which makes choosing the day's watch quick, and the closed lid helps keep dust off them between wears. We like it on a bedside table, a chest of drawers or a shelf in a dressing room, wherever the watches come off at the end of the day. Wrapped up, it makes a thoughtful Father's Day gift, with room for an everyday watch and one kept for best.
The box is made of wood, with a hinged lid that lifts back and stays open while you take a watch out or put one away. Each cushion fills its compartment, so a strap or bracelet wraps around it and the face sits looking up to the window. To care for it, dust the wood with a soft dry cloth and wipe the window gently with a clean, soft cloth; as with any wooden piece, keep it away from damp and direct heat. Set it beside a small tray for keys and cufflinks and the end of the day gets a little tidier.
