 “Beautiful boxes are a passion of mine. The idea of having something truly beautiful to place special memories into has always had a strong emotional appeal to me. My mother had a special box on her dressing table, and she kept old photos from her childhood in the 1920’s and ‘30s in it. I used to sneak in when she was working on the farm and look at these photos, trying to imagine what life was like back then. Mum lived to be 103, and she owned and used that box for her whole life”.    David Boucher
