This is about a 1950's Decatur Industries solid walnut humidor. I put a nice tung oil stain on it and redid all the mildewed cedar. I am not sure the original was Spanish Cedar anyway. I did this one as a gift for my Brother. It turned out okay so I am doing some for some other friends. My question is: Would anyone be interested in trading for something like this? Holds about 25 cigars.

You top that with beeswax? I like the two in combination.

I have the grain still showing through. I like the texture. Wax will get stuck in the grain. Just use lemon oil(or any good furniture oil) to maintain it.
