This is my Tibetan Temple Chest, based on an ancient piece found in a Tibetan temple.
The design is based on a Golden Rectangle. The chest body and all of the drawers have the same proportions. The casework is cherry with walnut pegs, drawer-pulls and base. The drawer insides on this one are walnut but usually are made of #1 clear pine or tulip wood (poplar). Drawer bottoms are aromatic red cedar. As usual, all drawers are made with hand-cut dovetail joinery and have an almost airtight fit to keep out dust and moisture. Perfect for storing drawings, art supplies, herbs, candles, incense, books, or precious items.
Dimensions: 33" Wide X 20 1/2" High X 12 1/2" Deep
Can be made in custom sizes.
Drawer Inside Dimensions:
Large Drawers: 10 1/2" Deep X 13 3/4" Wide X 8 3/4" High
Small Drawers: 10 1/2" Deep X 8 3/4" Wide X 5 1/2" High
Top and Drawer Detail
This picture with back removed shows the structural details of each individually fitted drawer, sliding in its own position. All drawers are made using hand cut dovetail joinery and have drawer bottoms of aromatic red cedar which provides a nice fragrance and repels moths.
