STUNNINGLY CUSTOM HANDMADE WOODEN HUMIDOR/CIGAR BOX BY CHARLES TEDDER OF HIGH POINT, NC. EXTERIOR MEASUREMENTS ARE 14″ LONG X 10 1/2″ WIDE X 5 HIGH. A THIN BLOCK OF WOOD INSIDE THE LID CAN DISPLAY YOUR NAME OPPOSITE THAT OF THE CREATOR, CHARLES TEDDER. NOTE SLATS IN THE TOP TRAY TO ALLOW THE MOISTURE TO PERMEATE BOTH LAYERS OF STORED CIGARS. LID HAS THREE HINGES TO PROVIDE STRENGTH. THE MAIN WOOD ON THE TOP AND THE BASE OF THE BOX IS CHAK-KOK WITH ACCENT PIECES OF EBONY AND HOLLY (WHITE). TEDDER’S WOODCRAFT IS EXTRAORDINARY AND WELL-SOUGHT AFTER. Charles is a fourth generation wood-worker. “From the time I can remember, I was handing my father his tools”. He spent most of his adult life working for Hatteras Yachts. For most of those years he was manager of Quality Assurance. “I maintained a wood-working shop as a hobby and to relax myself after wearing a tie for eight hours”. In the early 90’s, after twenty five years with Hatteras Yachts, Charles went into business for himself and chose to start an antique furniture repair business. About five years ago I made my first humidor for a friend. He ordered six more and by word of mouth I was swamped with requests for custom, one-of-a-kind humidors. Charles says he has made over three hundred humidors with no two ever the same. “I sign and date each one and never make another one exactly like it”. I work with over thirty different types of domestic and exotic hardwoods. I don’t use any wood that is on the endangered list. I have always lived in North Carolina and love this state. I have complete control of the quality of my products. Charles Tedder Thomasville, North Carolina.
