Victorian Painted Toleware Coal Box

19th century

Sold by Rams Head Antiques

Description

This is a very nice example of a Victorian toleware coal box which dates from the late 19th century. The coal box is beautifully hand painted in a deep chestnut colour with pink flowers to the lid and has its original liner and brass shovel. The coal box is in very original condition which is quite rare for this type of item, with the liner in perfect order, and looking as if it has hardly been used. The solid brass work to the box is very decorative and its stamped registered number dates it to 1894. The coal box has neat proportions measuring 40 cms high, 38 cms deep and 24 cms wide. This is in excellent condition throughout and would really add warmth and character to any fireplace.
