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. 9th August 2008

The longest day is now behind us and so are my summer holidays – I’ve just got back for a paragliding holiday in France – brilliant! The days are now getting shorter! Hard to believe because from where I’m sitting there’s still no sign of summer. Winter seems to have mushed into spring and spring into summer. We’re still lighting the living room stove!

As for boxes – I think I started the year at a gallop but I seem to have slowed down to a trot. I have a very impressive pile of jewellery boxes in the workshop but they’re not finished! They will be and hopefully I will get them photographed and put onto this site but at the moment it’s all I can do to keep pace with demand. I seem to be selling the boxes before they’re finished which of course means that nothing new gets onto the gallery pages.

The ring boxes and cufflink boxes are still going well. I’m just about to make another batch of ring boxes in sycamore although looking at the shelf I’m fast running out of the walnut boxes as well…Life’s too short! But it’s great – I wouldn’t have it any other way.

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