A beautifully detailed antique English tea caddy showcasing a rectangular casket with a beveled center to the lid. The caddy is ornately detailed with foliate vines surrounding hand-painted scenes of figures in towns surrounded by natural landscapes. The hinged lid opens to two lidded compartments with dainty floral handles. Raised on stout bun feet.
Condition
A wonderful piece with wear commensurate with age and use. Finish wear, checking and minor losses around the corners, and the right hinge of the lid is detached. The caddy stands slightly off balance.
Measurements
