Black Queen Cryptex

Following and adapting the instructions from the journal and Billooms (Thanks!), I was able to make this cryptex for a very special person. I'm real new at turning and the skills required were beyond my expected ability, but I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out.
African blackwood burnished, holly and bubinga finished with spray lacquer.
