Handcrafted Decorative Wood Boxes ~ by VanEss Expressions


VanEss Expressions offers a variety of functional, yet decorative wood boxes. Wood boxes can come in a variety of shapes & sizes, and for a variety of purposes. Wood jewelry boxes are typically segmented. Tea boxes are also segmented, but uniformly to separate the different types of teabags. Wood book boxes are deep with square sides, and custom made for the specific book (family Bible, special photo album, etc), and have an attached ribbon to lift the book. Keepsake boxes come in every shape & size, depending on what you what to keep safe. Decorative wood boxes are beautiful & functional - but also are a perfect way to present that other extra special gift.

Although we do make wood boxes with a standard mitered corner, we like the appearance of box-joint corners. When using a single type of wood, these corners are subtle, but still very much visible. When you combine different, contrasting woods, the results can be very dramatic.
