The Talented Craftsman Behind the Shadow Box.

My husband, Jerry, who is the owner of Cornerstone Cabinets in Paso Robles, CA, has been a wood craftsman for over 30 years. 
His accumulated experience in custom design and manufacturing of specialty wood products is used in creating the Shadow Boxes.

Our Shadow Boxes are made from the finest domestic and imported hardwoods and veneers, with environmentally friendly finishes, providing years of protection.

The Shadow Box is illuminated with 100% LED lighting that does not emit ultraviolet radiation or heat that could damage material. This type of lighting adds to the shadowy effect that makes for a stunning visual display.

We offer a choice of two glass lighting options. One is clear glass that incorporates a lighting system operating on hidden rechargeable batteries that require no electrical wiring/outlet. This allows you to hang the Shadow Box on any wall.

The second lighting system, creates the visually stunning one-way mirrored Shadow Boxes, using lights that do require a wall outlet.

Great-Grandma's wedding dress led us to create
the Heirloom Shadow Box Company.

The idea for a lighted Shadow Box capable of displaying large items such as wedding dress with veil, purse and shoes, military uniforms,  etc. came about when I was given my great grandmother’s wedding dress. It was then, that I decided I wanted to display the dress in my home. 

Since my husband had years of experience designing and building custom cabinets, he designed and built a custom Shadow Box for me. 
I received so many compliments from friends that had seen the Shadow Box displaying my great grandmother’s wedding dress and purse, that I realized there is a need as well as a desire to display family heirlooms such as that very special wedding dress. Now, with our Shadow Boxes, you can display your sentimental keepsakes instead of leaving them to gather dust in the attic.

The original Shadow Box was not lighted because, at the time, the only lighting available would be damaging to the material.  The latest advancements in high-powered LED lighting now allow us to illuminate our Shadow Boxes.  The LED light produces virtually no heat and no ultraviolet radiation that could damage materials.  With the option of hidden rechargeable batteries built within the Shadow Box, there is no need for an electrical outlet. This feature allows the Shadow Box to be displayed similar to any piece of artwork hung on the wall.
