The Mandala box

Information

      The “Mandala” box is an elegant laser‑cut container designed for storing jewelry, keepsakes and small treasures. The contrast between light wood and the darker top layer creates a sense of depth and highlights the intricate floral‑mandala motif on the lid. The openwork sides echo the pattern from the top, making the box look like a small wooden lantern that fits perfectly on a vanity, desk or shelf.
The lid is made of two layers: the bottom plate closes the interior, while the upper, richly cut layer creates a decorative ornament. The shape and construction are optimized for laser cutting, with interlocking joints that allow precise assembly without complicated tools. You can cut the box from 3 mm plywood or other thin wood‑based material, then stain, paint or varnish it to match your interior style.
This model works great as:
	•	a jewelry or watch box,
	•	a keepsake box for letters and small gifts,
	•	decorative gift packaging,
	•	a base for personalization (engraved initials, date, logo).
The files are prepared for laser cutting and aimed at makers who want a visually striking yet technically well‑designed project for personal use or for selling finished pieces.
