Crafted to perfection, this bespoke case embodies the essence of luxury and rarity. Inspired by the robust design of a pelican case, Case #8 is my first Mono timber case, handmade from River Rimu.
River Rimu is old growth Rimu that has been naturally preserved for centuries in a low-oxygen riverbed environment. The river sediments impart a unique, warm hue throughout the grain, making each piece truly one of a kind.
Finished with Rubio Monocoat +2C in "Pure," this case exudes a refined sheen that enhances the natural beauty of the watercolored grain.
Each component, from the hinges and latches to the gas strut sleeve, is crafted from the same length of River Rimu, ensuring an unparalleled harmony in material and design. Brass pins offer lasting strength, while neodymium magnets provide a secure yet elegant closure.
With internal dimensions of 380mm x 310mm x 160mm, this case is designed to house your most valuable treasures.
Whether a collection of luxury timepieces or fragile glass art. This is more than just a case; it's a piece of New Zealand's natural history, captured in an elegant and functional work of art.
