Hand Made Colonial Leather and Wood Jewelry Box, "Happy Hummingbird"
A hummingbird hovers amid flowers to feast on their sweet nectar. Portrayed in burnished tooled leather, the graceful images adorn a diminutive chest of drawers for keepsakes and treasures. Oscar Pastor crafts the jewelry box from wood and covers it in polychrome leather with an antique finish. The drawers open with wrought iron pulls, and a mirror is set inside the lid.

"Gorgeous jewelry box! Happy, indeed!"
I know I wrote a Testimonial for this years ago, but it must have gotten lost. This jewelry box looks stunning on my antique dresser. My husband picked it out for me as a Valentines Day or Birthday Gift (dont recall which now). Gorgeous details - excellent craftsmanship.

"A beautiful piece of artwork!"
I was looking for a unique piece to have beside my leather chair where I read and do needlepoint. Something nice that I could put my things in so the end table wouldnt be so cluttered. It is in the main living area of my home and visible to company. This is the perfect thing and Im proud to show it off! It is a generous size but not awkwardly large. The colors are vibrant without being too much. The carvings are amazing and sharp. You can tell that it is a good quality piece that was made by a true craftsman. I am so very pleased with it! Highly recommended!
