My reproduction of an early Schwenkfelder candlebox. I made this one the same 11" size as the original, with hand dovetailed joints and sliding lid. The original had a divider running lengthwise, making it 2 compartments. I omitted that to make it more usable, and changed the original initials of "EW" to "EB". The original sold at auction in (I think) 2000 for $88,000. Mine was made as a gift for a friend. (EB)
