About the Item
A Very Attractive And Good Quality Early 19th Century Regency Period, Burr Yew Wood Tea Caddy Having Boxwood Strung Decoration Throughout, The Hinged Pagoda Top Enclosing Two Lidded Divisions, With Original Brass Handles To Sides And Original Turned Wooden Feet.
A very attractive and elegant early 19th century tea caddy of typical form for the Regency period in terms of its shape. However it is particualrly unusual having the burr yew wood veneers and the fact that yew is such a decorative and highly sought after wood really adds to the appeal of this piece.
Something else which adds to the appeal is the original handles to the sides, these are a nice feature and they are certainly very elegant. The turned wooden feet which it stands on are also original.
Tea was a precious commodity throughout the 18th and 19th centuries and the purpose of a tea caddy was not just to preserve the and extend the life of the precious tea leaves, but also to enable the owner to lock away those aforementioned valuable tea leaves, keeping them safe from the house staffs potential wandering hands.
This tea caddy comes with a fully functioning lock and key, plus has been cleaned and traditionally waxed polished by our highly skilled and well trained specialist antique furniture restorers in our workshops before being offered for sale.
