Maybe in an idiot but is that really precision joinery? It looks like simple butt joints..?

Don’t get me wrong I think it’s pretty. But precision joinery I associate with more complicated joints.

Maybe my standards are lower. I'm also referring to the sliding fit of the lid which may be called something else

I see kind of a rabbit/ dado for the lid- that's a joint! and look at the butt joints they look picture perfect. It's great work, and this woodworker made it look easy.
