With care and precision, Caleb Nyakaba crafted two elegant wooden boxes to fit snugly inside Oliver's drawers, bringing order and beauty to his home life. What's your wish?
A request by Oliver from Berlin, Germany
I would like two wooden boxes as a drawer insert. I saw a wooden cutlery box on this site, which I liked very much. I would like to order two, for different drawers:
1st Box dimensions: 653 mm x 530 mm x 80 mm (W x D x H)
2nd Box dimensions: 397 mm x 500 mm x 50 mm (W x D x H)
If the first box is too large to handle in one piece, it can also be divided into two small ones. However, the length of the two boxes next to each other should be max. 653 mm. The first box is for knickknacks and all sorts of things, the division is not so crucial. I would prefer a good mixture of large and medium compartments.
The 2nd box is for cutlery, here I need 3 long compartments for knives, forks and spoons, a shorter one for small spoons and a large one for salad cutlery, bread knife and so on.
