What is the best wood for a jewelry box?
1 Answer
Oak is the best wood for a jewelry box. This wood, if oiled and cared for, lasts for decades and the design of this kind of box stands out. Oak offers appealing textures as well as color. Hardwoods are often the best wood choices for boxes, with oak being the most preferred. Others are Walnut, Maple, Ash, Birch, Beech, Cherry, Tulipwood (Poplar) and Cedar.
