FAQs

A Regency tea caddy is a lockable container produced during the early 19th century in Britain, designed specifically to store loose tea leaves. The term derives from the Malay word kati, a unit of weight used in the historical tea trade.

Antique tea caddies were predominantly constructed from cabinet woods such as walnut, mahogany, and rosewood, often decorated with burr or marquetry veneers. The interiors typically featured lead-foil linings or zinc containers to preserve the aroma and protect tea leaves from moisture.

Authentic Regency tea caddies display period construction details, including hand-cut dovetail joints, period hinges, and original brass keyhole escutcheons. The timber exhibits genuine surface patina, natural wood shrinkage around joint lines, and hand-finished polishing techniques.

An antique tea caddy functions as a decorative accent piece on a sideboard, bookshelf, or desk. It can be displayed closed as a sculptural timber accent or placed open to store small desk items and stationary.

Dust the timber surface regularly using a soft, dry cloth and apply high-quality beeswax polish sparingly once or twice a year to preserve the lustre. Keep the item away from direct sunlight, radiators, and damp conditions to prevent timber movement or veneer lifting.
