FAQs

A Regency tea caddy is a specialised wooden box produced during the early nineteenth century, designed to store loose-leaf tea under lock and key.

Traditional tea caddies were frequently constructed from native or imported hardwoods such as rosewood, mahogany, and walnut, often featuring brass, boxwood stringing, or bone escutcheons.

Authentic pieces typically exhibit sarcophagus or domed lid shaping, original brass or turned feet, hand-cut dovetail joinery, and natural patination across the surfaces.

An antique tea caddy functions as a decorative focal point on a sideboard, coffee table, or bookshelf, serving as historical display or storage for small items.

Dust the surface regularly with a dry cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish occasionally while keeping the wooden container away from direct heat sources and moisture.
