Shaker boxes

Shaker boxes are traditional, handcrafted wooden containers developed by the Shaker community for efficient storage and transportation. They are characterized by their circular shape, layered construction, and hinged lids, typically made from lightweight, durable woods like cherry or maple. The design features true dovetail joints, which ensure strength and durability without nails or hardware. These boxes often nest within each other when not in use, saving space. Renowned for their craftsmanship and simplicity, Shaker boxes blend functionality with aesthetic appeal, and are valued as both practical items and collectible art pieces.
