Pistol Display Case

My goal in designing this handcrafted pistol display case was for it to become a treasured keepsake. As a classically trained furniture maker, I use old world techniques to craft each pistol display case to order. No detail is overlooked and each case includes :

  • Handcarved legs
  • Glass top
  • Handcut cove molding
  • SOSS concealed hinges
  • Full mortise box lock
  • Mortised escutcheon
  • Padded fabric insert
  • Hand-rubbed finish

Handcrafted Pistols Display Customized for your pistol in Cherry with quarter sawn Jatoba interior

American Cherry is coveted by designers and furniture makers for its beautiful light brown color with red undertones. I use the highest quality cherry normally using rift-sawn pieces for the carcass of the case. The interior of your case will be constructed of gorgeous quarter sawn Jatoba veneer with velvet lacing around the outline of the pistol and matching padded velvet under the pistol.

Handcrafted Single Pistol Display Case customized for your pistol in Ebonized Oak with figured German Oak Interior. White oak is coveted by designers and furniture makers for its deep straight grain, strength and density. I use the highest quality white oak normally using rift-sawn pieces for the carcass of the case. Oak has a high tannin content which makes it a great choice for this technique. The technique relies on a solution which reacts with the tannins in the oak and permanently changes the tone to a glorious ebony with some deep undertones of brown and beige. This technique is far better than black stain, paint or tint because ebonization becomes a permanent part of the wood which then retains all its grain and character. The interior of your case will be constructed of figured fumed German Oak veneer with velvet lacing around the outline of the pistol and matching velvet padding under the pistol.
