This Walnut Arched Lid Box has a very 'slight' arch. It has dovetail joints, standard butt hinges, mortise lock. We use decorative inlay banding along the front edge to hide the seam. Wood grain veneer is used for the outside cover on all arched lids. Inside of the lid is reinforced with a wood strip.
