Hello Juliet, I am happy to provide an offer for your idea. I propose to make the box from Cypress wood with a clear varnish finishing. The size will be 16cm long, 7.5 cm wide and 5.5 cm in height. I will line the interior with leather. I have attached pictures of the two different bronze locks available to me. Looking forward to your feedback.
Brian Ng'aru 22 Feb 2023 10:57 am
The screws also don't have caps on them. I will need to find out if I can find any bronze caps and update you as well
Juliet 23 Feb 2023 2:57 pm
Hello Brian.The measurements are suitable. Yes,I've realised that the latches available locally don't have capped screws.If you do find bronze caps I will appreciate,if not that's fine.
We can go with the first lock (image 3) it's the closest to the original.

Please let me know approximately how much it would be for two cases and how long the process will take

Brian Ng'aru 25 Feb 2023 5:34 am
Hello Juliet, thanks for your feedback. I am sending a quotation for two cases. I will try and find bronze caps, hopefully I find some.

Hello Juliet I have received your confirmation to start working on the project. I will source for materials tomorrow and keep you updated. I am excited to work on the cases
Juliet 01 Mar 2023 3:56 pm
Thank you.Looking forward to seeing the progress and final outcome
Brian Ng'aru 04 Mar 2023 2:03 pm
Hello Juliet, I have purchased the locks and wood for the project, I will start curving them out on Monday. Enjoy your weekend
Juliet 06 Mar 2023 3:05 pm
Hello Brian.That's great!
Brian Ng'aru 06 Mar 2023 3:56 pm
Hello Juliet, I have everything ready to start, I have realized that 16cm would give little room for the glasses to fit when I measured with a pair of glasses I have, I wanted to advice that we make it 18cm long instead. I have attached a picture to elaborate.
Juliet 06 Mar 2023 4:50 pm
Seen.Please proceed with the new measurements.
Brian Ng'aru 07 Mar 2023 1:44 pm
Hello Juliet, I have started curving the cases and attached some progress update. I will keep you updated on the project.
Juliet 09 Mar 2023 4:22 pm
Looking good so far
Brian Ng'aru 13 Mar 2023 1:41 pm
Hello Juliet, so far so good, the locks were successfully delivered, am working on the finishing and installing the interior leather. I have attached some pictures of the leather and would love advice on what side you would like to be visible, I have also attached the updates on the cases, so far I have applied sanding sealer and waiting for it to dry so I can varnish.
Juliet 13 Mar 2023 5:45 pm
Hello Brian,love the look of things.You can use the reverse side of the leather, it goes with the pale wood.That's image 951 (having issues copying it here)

Brian Ng'aru 18 Mar 2023 6:45 pm
Hello Juliet, the cases are ready. I have attached some pictures of the final product
Juliet 19 Mar 2023 5:05 am
They are so lovely.Excited to see them in person.Thank you Brian
