This is an attractive box designed to be the center of attention. The corners are guarded by four dragons, whereas another dragon walks on the box. The fretwork is delicately designed and visually rich. The box doesn't need any hinge, the corner of the cover encases accurately in the heads of the four dragons. This fretworked box is one of the most beautiful ones I have ever seen. It is a masterpiece of the old Italian school of fretwork designers. The pattern is based on an old Italian design from the beginning of the XX century. It has been completely redrawn in the computer using the most advanced graphics techniques.

  The box is designed to be made preferably with 1/4 inches wood or with 6 mm wood, but of course it can be resized at will to fit any wood thickness. The following table gives the measures of the box depending on the wood thickness you use:
