About J. R. Hilland

I have created a wide array of fine hardwood boxes and furniture throughout the past 34 years for my friends, family and clients that I now have made available to you. Each product that I make is handcrafted with the utmost attention to detail and passion to ensure its perfection. I don't use nails or screws in my hardwood boxes, just proven traditional handcrafted joint work. This method of craftsmanship is very time consuming, but I am very proud of the items that I have put together for you and I am confident that you will enjoy the beautiful designs of each box. I do not do production runs, though I will recreate similar styles that are pleasing and functional.

I do not use dyes or a stain to produce the colors in these boxes. What you see is the natural color of the wood after a hand rubbed clear oil finish. I carefully select each board I use. Some of these woods are seldom used outside of high-end items such as furniture inlays, knife and gun handles, pool cues, etc. and can be very expensive. I compliment each box with some of the finest solid brass hardware available. My favorite hardware is available at www.brusso.com.

I appreciate your taking the time to view the collection of items that I have crafted. If you should have any questions or comments, please feel free to contact me directly at: woodshop@hapkidoselfdefense.com. Additional photos can be taken and emailed to you upon request.
