Sorry about the poor quality picture, I kind of snapped it on the way out the door as an afterthought so the light was pretty bad.
This is a rolltop breadbox I made about 25 years ago that's been in pretty much daily use at my dads house ever since.
The wood was supposedly "mahogany" but looking at it with a somewhat more jaundiced eye I'm suspecting it was a mahogany substitute. The roll top is cloth backed and while the cloth is pinned into a slot on the front and back slats the others are just held on with (real) contact cement which has apparently held up pretty well.
