This cylindrical antique Indian solid silver box tea caddy dates from 1910 and has a fitted lid. The silver object displays a shiny metallic silver colour with detailed repousse relief and chased decoration depicting trees, foliage, and village huts, complemented by ornate leaf-pattern mouldings around the rim of the lid and a carved animal scene on top. The piece measures 7.2 cm tall. Place this practical caddy on a sideboard top or a gentleman's library desk to store small personal items, loose leaf tea, or trinkets. The compact container functions as a decorative accessory in a traditional or eclectic interior scheme.

FAQs

Indian colonial silver from the Raj era is characterised by detailed repousse and chased decoration depicting village scenes, jungle flora, and traditional motifs.

These vessels were handcrafted from high-purity or sterling silver using repousse and chasing techniques, where metal was hammered from behind and chased on the exterior to form dimensional reliefs.

Authentic pieces frequently feature un-hallmarked high-purity silver or regional maker marks, alongside distinctive surface relief work depicting native flora, fauna, and architectural forms.

Position the piece on a dressing table, desk, or display shelf to add metallic texture and historical detail that complements contemporary minimalist or eclectic interior schemes.

Clean gently using a soft, lint-free cloth and a specialised non-abrasive silver polish, taking care not to remove deliberate oxidisation in recessed details.
