Beautiful piece, Ron.  I have found the sanding to be a bit challenging mixing Jatoba with other softer woods.  I had to use an oak sanding block (versus the hard rubber 3M sanding block) to keep the surface flat.  Jatoba gets turns to a deep red over time.

Jewelry box size is 7 ½” x 4 ¼” x 3”. Woods used were Holly, Maple, Jatoba & Cherry. Cherry & Jatoba were laminated and then cut to size for the box. Inlayed banding on top to complement. Finished with clear satin polyurethane and polished with bees wax.
