Sapele 80's Boombox Style Bluetooth Radio
**** THIS IS A CUSTOM MADE TO ORDER ITEM WITH A 4 WEEK TURNAROUND ***. This boombox was inspired by a real broken radio I had kicking around my shop for years because I am a hoarder masquerading as a maximalist. Dad likes to harvest parts off the radios I cannot save and repurpose them into these units but one day decided to make one entirely out of wood, with just a small nod to the original hardware with the use of screws. It’s a stunning design, but also hilarious and joyful. The hand carved “buttons” have the charm of a smile. The handle on this one is moveable - adding the element of an old fashioned toy to this fashionable speaker. This piece is made entirely from Sapele. The black in the piece are ebonized Sapele, a chemical wood process utilizing vinegar to achieve a dark luster. Despite all it’s sophistication this boom box is fucking rock n roll at it’s finest. Filled with audio grade polyfil, it also sounds fantastic.
