Tulipwood Display Cases
Affordable Display Case
Whilst we have, over many years, made quality Bespoke Display Cases of self-assembly construction in wood and glass - with the increased cost of both these materials - we are offering a more affordable, but still handmade, quality display case.
Made to your dimensions, glazed in acrylic with a finely sanded framework in Tulipwood - for you to polish, stain, paint or finish as you require.
Delivery
The model display cases are flat-packed which reduces the likelihood of damage in transit and helps to keep down the cost of postage and packaging.
​
To calculate the price for us to make you a Tulipwood Display Case, please follow the following calculation: Add together your required internal length + width + height in inches and multiply the total by 4, for example 12" length + 6" wide + 15" height x 4 = £132.00.
​
Please contact us as prices will vary depending upon the size of the display case and destination. If you prefer, you may collect.
Our Materials
What is Tulipwood? In the United States it is commonly known as 'Tulip Poplar' or 'Yellow Poplar'.
​
The wood is very light, but very strong, and is used in many applications - including furniture, joinery and mouldings. It can also be easily stained and polished, and is often used (in furniture making) as a low-cost alternative to oak, walnut, cherry ash and mahogany.
Internal Base Finish
The interior of the base can be finished in quality jeweller's suede - with a choice of colours: light blue, royal blue, bottle green, scarlet, black, light grey (samples are available on request).
Matching veneer can be used (matched to the solid wood base frame).
Should you wish to finish the base yourself, for a diorama or rail track etc, the base can be left plain.
