Early 19th Century Oak Candle box from England

About the Item

Early 19th century oak candle box from England. The box has a wonderfully hand carved top with two opposing birds flanking a central pineapple. These symbols were also synonymous with welcoming guests into your home. Below the birds, there is a lovely small carved piece over the lid of the candle box. The lid is beveled around the edge for added design detail. The sides of the box are simple and the front has beaded edges, which flank the central panel. That is decorated with a crossed knife and fork, letting you know this box belongs in the kitchen or dining area. These are wonderful decorations for any room lucky enough to have it!
