Hi everyone,
Thanks for the helpful suggestions.
I got UBeaut's polish reviver, and worked softly on it for a long time (started with cloth, then went to 0000 steel wool cos that wasn't working, then went back to cloth again.)
To get rid of the polish reviver smell, i just gave the top of the box a very light rub with "Gilly Stephenson's Australian Orange Oil".
See what you think of the pics.
There is a dark spot on the left hand side of the inlay - don't know if this was a figure of the wood to begin with, or if it is something i might be able to help?

Great job Bassmansimon :2tsup:, I like the timber. Has anyone identified what it is.:rolleyes: My guess it is made out of black walnut. Any other ideas?

nobody has identified it yet (or tried to). it would be quite ironic if it was black walnut, because that's the same as what i've used in the first (and so far only) proper box i have made.
