Rare Urn-shaped "Fruit" Tea Caddy

19th century
Description

A pretty and rare early 19th century fruitwood TEA CADDY in the shape of an urn.

The moulded dome-shaped lid features a finial in the form of a pear with laurel-leaf decoration around the outside, whilst the body is decorated with leaves and flowers with similar decoration around the circular plinth base. The top opens to reveal much of the original lead lining and it is complete with its original key.

*This is very closely related to the group of "fruit" tea caddies, which were made in Northern Europe, particularly Bavaria in the first couple of decades of the 19th century.

Declaration

Quiet Street Antiques of Bath 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.

The Sustainable Choice

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.
