This Three custom made wooden cutlery boxes has been realized by myself, Esther Oriku, in Kenya for Roland from Mühlheim am Main (Deutschland). It started with the idea from Roland. This page shows our journey from the idea to the final custom made item and the price of the item
On this page I have seen a wooden cutlery box, which I liked very much. I would like to order two for one drawer: 1. lower box dimensions: 520 mm x 400 mm x 60 mm (W x D x H) 2. upper box with the same dimensions. Both boxes are for one drawer and must therefore be stackable. It should be similar to the attached pictures. I would have liked to have stuck a felt on the inside (see picture). But this is not a condition.
The result

The height can be 6 – 7 cm. It is important that both boxes are placed in a drawer on top of each other, therefore a lower and an upper box.
The green felt on the inside of each compartment is optional and not binding.
Everything that is not used so often is put in the lower box, the rest of the cutlery is put in the upper box.
Yours sincerely from Mühlheim am Main

In the order the same picture of me is set twice. !!!! This irritates me.
I assume that I get 2 different boxes from the arrangement.
The image files I have attached to this letter are:
1. cutlery tray downstairs.
2. cutlery tray on top.
Otherwise, everything's fine. You're good to go.
Yours sincerely

Hello, Ester,
I have ordered 2 cutlery boxes with different compartments (a lower and an upper cutlery box).
When I look at the pictures like this, I see the same cutlery tray twice. (The lower box)
My friend made the same thing twice. !!!!
The upper cutlery tray is missing. He should make it before the parts are shipped.
Of course I take all 3 boxes and will transfer another 70,00 € to the Raiffeisenbank Bütthard-Gaukönigshofen.
Yours sincerely
Roland
