Family Crest Keepsake Box — made to order in real hardwood
An heirloom box crafted one at a time in our Central Illinois shop. We carve/engrave your family crest (or custom emblem), then hand-sand and finish the wood so the grain and detail stand out for years.
At a glance
• Personalized lid: surname, motto, date, or custom emblem
• Real hardwoods: walnut, white oak, or cherry (no veneers)
• Proof included before we carve (layout/spelling)
• Hand-finished for a warm, durable sheen
• Thoughtful gift for weddings, anniversaries, retirements, and promotions
How to personalize / send your reference
You can attach and upload an image right on the order page or after checkout, reply to your order email with your crest or reference image (and any text/symbols you want). We’ll send a quick layout/spelling proof so everything is exactly right before we carve. If you don’t have a crest, tell us your surname and any symbols you’d like—we’ll suggest a clean, readable layout.
Materials & finish
We work in kiln-dried walnut, white oak, and cherry. Each box is hand-sanded and finished to highlight natural grain and contrast. Because it’s real wood, tone and figure vary—every box is one-of-a-kind.
Lead time & shipping
Made to order. Current lead time is shown at checkout (typically 3-4 weeks) . Ships carefully packed, ready to gift.
Care
Indoor use. Dust with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid harsh cleaners and prolonged direct heat/humidity.
Why it’s different
Proof-first process, real hardwoods, and traditional carving/engraving—built to be admired for generations.
