ShouZhuo handmade---Grandma's Memories Box

Wood species: We chose to use dark African teak wood with fine wood grain as the main body of this work, rather than the general soft wood and lighter pine wood, mainly because such hard wood is less prone to dents and can be dented. The service life is longer, and because it is hardwood, its value is also higher than that of ordinary softwood (pine). As time goes on, the texture of the wood will get better and better. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50961558657_d7ebe0aac0_w.jpg Three types of glass to choose from Silver Star Glass: It is a common old window glass in Taiwan in the early days, with a cross pattern and a little Japanese style. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50961513991_af651a2676_w.jpg ▸ Begonia flower glass: It is also one of the old glasses that I often saw when I was a child. The whole piece is covered with begonia prints, which is quite retro. Many guests choose this pattern to give gifts to foreign friends. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50960807823_8192af593c_w.jpg Silver Glass: The pattern is simple and elegant, and we often use it to make hand-painted glass and light box glass. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50961515126_0673df8595_w.jpg grass: Most of the glass in Shouzhuo Studio is purchased from people everywhere, especially the Begonia flower and Silver star cross pattern glass are often dismantled from old houses. After all the glass is brought back to the studio, it will be sorted and eliminated, and occasionally there will be fine lines, which are the traces left by the years. coating: The general direction of our creation is to make works that consumers can use for a long time. We strictly examine every detail and corner. We choose to use German Osmo 3044 natural "primary color" handguard oil for the outer coating, with natural combination of raw materials. After drying, it is harmless to the human body and children, and at the same time protects the safety and health of the giver and the user, so please feel free to use it. ＊＊＊＊＊Note: We have the same check standard for materials, but because wood is a natural material, Even with the same wood species, each batch of wood will be somewhat different in color and grain. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50961453946_f929a40612_w.jpg The memory box is made from our early glass (supposedly 40 years ago). Originally, the name of this work was called the box of memories, but I always felt that the name could not fully express our original intention of designing it, but one day a customer said that she wanted to use this box to carry her. Mammy's relic, my joy at the moment is not only the joy that someone appreciates the work, but also the joy that this work has finally found its name, Mammy's memory box, how everyday but close to our vocabulary, can always outline. Many of our emotions, this is the original intention of this box when it was born, isn't it? It replaces the important people and things around us and accompanies us to live our lives, but when we see the things in the box, we will recall the memory Drops from the depths. We have inserted three wedges at each contact surface, which not only increases the visual beauty, but also strengthens its overall structure, prolongs its life, and allows it to accompany you all the time. Note: Our gatekeeping standards for materials are the same, just because wood is a natural material, Even with the same wood species, each batch of wood will be somewhat different in color and grain. Keep your hands dirty: Following the wooden signboard and spirit of my father ten years ago, Pay attention to solid feel, Do your best to keep your humble, naive nature in your creations. It is expected that the object will grow a story in the collector's body, durable, attractive and intriguing. The handwork that preserves the simplicity of the work is the embodiment of the humble handwork.
