<p>[QUOTE=&quot;808 raver, post: 237578, member: 4654&quot;]It would have taken a skilled person a good long while to make the inlays, these are made by gluing&nbsp; 1000&#039;s of thin strips together then sawing veneers off the block, today it&#039;s done with power tools but when this was made it was all done by hand. The box construction is crude, often with large woodworm holes in even before they started making the box, whether they had a wood shortage or all local woods have worm problems I don&#039;t know? But it&#039;s common to see original paint over these holes.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
