FAQs

A George III tea caddy is a small portable wooden box produced in Britain during the reign of King George III (17601820), designed specifically to store and preserve valuable loose-leaf tea under lock and key.

Georgian tea caddies were typically constructed from fine hardwoods such as mahogany or satinwood, featuring hand-cut dovetail joints, cast brass handles, brass keyhole escutcheons, and interior foil or zinc linings to keep tea fresh.

Authentic period pieces feature hand-cut joinery, period-appropriate brass hardware with natural oxidisation, slight unevenness from hand-planing, and traditional footed bases such as bracket or ogee feet.

Place a Georgian tea caddy centrally on a console table, sideboard, or bookshelf to serve as a warm timber accent, pairing it alongside contemporary ceramic tableware, books, or framed botanical prints.

Keep the wood nourished by applying a small amount of clear beeswax polish once or twice a year, dusting regularly with a dry microfibre cloth, and placing the item away from direct heat sources or harsh sunlight.
