It has taken a few days to remember what I was doing before my trip to China. But, now that I have had some time to recollect and readjust my internal clock.
I am happy to share some of the progress on the "treasure chests" that I have been working on.

This box was the first prototype and I am rather pleased with how it turned out. Although the box can overpower the presence of the piece within, under the right lighting they do compliment each other very well.

A more daring design approach, I am really excited to see where this idea is going.

This design presents a few interesting challenges to work around, although having a challenge is always a great exercise. Hopefully through making all of these different cases, I eventually stumble upon the ideal solution for packaging and displaying these "treasures".

None of these cases are 100% finished yet, but some of them are getting very close to being completed.

There are still a few other designs that I am playing around with as well. I hope to share the evolution of these cases and the other designs I am working on as well (when I find the time).
I have so many projects to work on at the moment it can be difficult to decide where to focus my attention.
Regardless I will be back with more progress soon.
