These change banks were created for The West Chester University Alumni Association at Brandywine Woodworks. We were commissioned by the university to build banks for the salvaged mailbox fronts form one of the dormitories scheduled for
demolition. The boxes are crafted from cherry that was salvaged from
the Brandywine Valley where West Chester University is located. Traditional box joints were hand cut giving the bank a strong vaulted
appearance. I was able to remove the tumblers from the mailbox doors,
giving each unit a simple one letter combination. A hand rubbed oil finish was applied to beautify and protect these truly unique pieces.
