14. Austin Heitzman, USA, Holly and Rosewood Bonsai Stand with ‘mitre reverses at the bottom of the leg and criss- crosses under the top. The small scale (1/2"–3/8" thick legs) further complicates the delicate joinery.’
15. Germán Peraire, Spain. Contemporary Slant-Front Desk opens to reveal a space to read, write or study without distractions. Includes a spring-loaded secret compartment.
16. Ronnie Rozenga, Netherlands, Marquetry Optical Illusion Box. A vanishing perspective point and grain arrangement aid the illusion in ash, wenge, jatoba, maple, padauk and ebony.
17. Ian Parker, UK, Jewellery Box. The marquetry is knife cut using dyed veneers and tapered line to a design that further echoes the pointed elliptical shape.
18. Jannik Grage, Denmark, Jewellery Box, wenge, shagreen. The box is conical and the sides tilt 1.5°. There are
wooden hinges and a small tray inside. Photo: Katharina Grage

20. Clare Ng, UK. The Square Box has a secret compartment for ‘unforgettable memories’. The 25 bookmatched endgrain squares signify a 25th birthday.
21. Mary Tsai, USA. Tree of Life Table. A cherry wood dining table inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright’s Tree of Life stained glass window.
22. Paul Schneider, Germany. Handmade Chesspieces in European walnut and maple, brass weighted. The measurements match World Chess Federation standards.
