FAQs

A tea caddy is a container designed to store dry tea leaves, widely used during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries when tea was an expensive imported luxury.

These boxes typically feature native hardwoods such as walnut, oak, or maple, detailed with tessellated wood marquetry, mosaic borders, and bone or metal escutcheons.

Period tea caddies show evidence of hand-cut joinery, period-appropriate brass lock plates, natural surface patination, and age-consistent wear around hinges and bases.

An antique wooden tea caddy serves as an accent piece when displayed on a sideboard, desk, or bookshelf, introducing historic craftsmanship to contemporary rooms.

Keep the wooden surface away from direct sunlight and heat sources, dusting regularly with a soft dry cloth and applying natural beeswax sparingly to protect the timber.
