George IV Mahogany Sarcophagus Tea Caddy

19th century
Description

Circa 1820, exhibition quality George IV mahogany sarcophagus tea caddy. The wonderful flame mahogany top has carved flowers and fruits in the centre and a beaded fore edge. This opens to reveal a fitted interior of three lidded sections, each framed in a tropical hardwood and with stylish flush knob handles in the centre. The lids lift off to show the original zinc lined interior. On the front of the caddy is a small mother of pearl escutcheon in the form of a heraldic shield. At the sides are large ring handles held in position by small brackets which have carving similar to the knobs inside. At the base the beaded moulding is repeated and there is a very unusual apron of arches all the way around.

Size 21cm high x 32cm wide x 20cm deep.

Most items include delivery anywhere in the UK mainland.

Declaration

Georgian Antiques has dated this piece to the 1800s.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.
