Welcome to Peter Lloyd's website.
Wooden Boxes ~ Jewellery boxes ~ Ring boxes ~Desk boxes

Peter Lloyd, working from his small workshop in Cumbria UK, searches out unusual and beautiful English hardwoods to create jewellery boxes, ring boxes, work boxes, writing slopes or special commissions; a box to hold a treasured heirloom, a christening box, a chess set, a presentation piece, or a very individual corporate gift. 

Whether it be a desk box made of oak from HMS Victory, a jewelry chest, a little jewel of a ring box or stationery box of burr elm, each of these handmade wooden boxes is a celebration of its wood.

News. 22nd June 2009

In my last ‘news’ update I was talking about the daffodils being in full flower! Now the summer solstice has come and gone, the blackbird chicks have been fed (continuously) by their devoted parents and have flown from the nest in our wood pile and we’re getting a few sunny days! It’s been far too long since I’ve written anything here.

As for things wooden, jewellery boxes are being made but I have to admit that I do sometimes jump from one box to another rather than work steadily through one and then start the next. I’ve got a fairly good selection of desk boxes made now and I’ve got plenty of ring boxes in both walnut and sycamore. And talking of ring boxes I’ve decided to make a range of larger ‘ring boxes’ which could be customised or simply used as a small jewellery box. It will be a few weeks before these are made though but I’ll put a note on here when they are.

There’s more news on my diary and exhibitions page. Peter
