In A Nutshell Antiques and Interiors has dated this piece to the 19th Century.
The raised top panel and the back of the Caddy is mahogany and the rest is rosewood.
It is in very good condition for its age and displays beautifully. It is complete and the glass bowl is undamaged with a lovely ring to it. The inside is clean and tidy and the exterior has a rich patina. There are some small signs of wear and age and a chip on the back corner (see photo) but nothing major. The lid has warped slightly over time and the front sits slightly off the lip but it isn't detrimental. Overall it is a nice clean box however there is no key.
The best description comes from the photos so please look at them all carefully and if you have any questions please ask.
