Tulipwood Display Cases
Affordable Display Case
Over many years, I have made quality bespoke
display cases in wood and glass using my self-assembly construction. With the rising cost of both materials, I now offer a more affordable alternative that is still handmade and made to order.
Each Tulipwood Display Case is made to your
required dimensions, glazed in clear acrylic and finished with a finely sanded Tulipwood framework, ready for you to polish, stain, paint or
finish as you wish.
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 6, for example 12" length + 6" wide + 15" height x 6 = £198.00.
Please contact us as prices will vary depending upon the size of the display case and destination. If you prefer, you may collect.
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.
