Handmade silver tea caddy from the early George V era and recreated in a casket style first made popular in the late 1700s. This fine silver tea caddy features a rectangular body and cover, the former tapering towards the base which rests upon four claw supports. A delicate detachable cast swing handle and hinged clasp are nicely detailed.
Although made as a tea caddy, the box could be repurposed to hold jewellery or as a desk box.
