The Lure of the Box
Through out history, the box has held a certain fascination. The magic of a special place for treasures is enhanced when the structure itself is a treasured object.
From a child’s small box of trinkets to the riches of a kingdom, the box is a container for the imagination.
That fascination has encouraged me to combine different craft processes: glass fusing, lapidary and metal smithing. I have created thousands of boxes since I began in 1984. I see no end to the conceivable designs possible for a box.”
Now firmly ensconced in the North Carolina mountains, designer, craftsman Neal Hearn has been exploring the box phenomenon. He enjoys combining all his talents to create unique, one-of-a-kind boxes and jewelry.
