Description

Early 20th Century Arts & Crafts Walnut Box

A well-made early 20th-century walnut box, English, dating from the Edwardian period. Of rectangular form, raised on a stepped ebonised base, and fitted with a gently pyramidal lid surmounted by a simple ebonised handle.

The walnut displays an attractive natural grain throughout, with restrained ebonised detailing used to define the form. The interior is plain and unlined, suitable for use as a desk box, document box, or for general storage.

Measures 25 x 15 x 12 (height) cm

In good condition overall. The lid sits correctly but is slightly loose, with a small amount of movement when handled. There is general surface wear, including light scratches and minor staining, consistent with age and use. The interior is clean and usable.

The Arts and Crafts movement emerged in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, emphasising traditional craftsmanship, simple forms, and the natural qualities of materials such as wood and metal over mass production.

Pieces from this era typically utilized solid native and exotic hardwoods like walnut and oak, featuring visible joinery, hand-finished surfaces, and minimal yet purposeful ornamentation.

Authentic pieces often show hand-planed surfaces, traditional dovetail or mitred joints, natural ageing patination in the timber, and an absence of modern machine-tooled fastenings.

Such items serve as functional surface decor, placing them on coffee tables, sideboards, or bookshelves to introduce texture, warmth, and historical interest to modern spaces.

Preservation requires keeping the wood away from direct sunlight and heat sources, dusting regularly with a soft cloth, and occasionally applying microcrystalline wax to nourish the grain.
