FAQs

A Georgian tea caddy is a lockable container produced during the 18th and early 19th centuries designed specifically to store loose-leaf tea securely.

These containers were predominantly crafted from hardwoods such as mahogany, rosewood, or satinwood, often featuring boxwood stringing, brass hinges, and bone or ivory escutcheons.

Authentic Georgian caddies typically exhibit hand-cut dovetail joints, period-appropriate hand-hammered brass fittings, natural timber shrinkage, and original zinc or lead interior linings.

A tea caddy can be displayed on a sideboard, desk, or mantelpiece as a decorative accent, serving as a functional storage vessel for small desktop items.

Maintain the surface by dusting with a dry microfibre cloth and applying beeswax polish sparingly, avoiding exposure to direct sunlight or heat sources to prevent timber movement.
