A traditional colonial American design, the five-plank box is reworked in custom materials for modern sensibilities.

This example is made of mahogany with dovetailed corners and aromatic cedar lining for protection against moths. The hinges and keyhole escutcheon are brass.

Whether used for winter clothes and covers, or given as a wedding present with optional carved initials and date, the "Hope" or Blanket Chest resists the passage of seasons and fashions.
