19th Century Wonderful Victorian Solid Oak Casket with Bronze Plaque to Top, and Partitioned Interior, for Desk or Table.

19th century
Description

19th century Victorian very unique solid oak desk or tabletop casket or box with bronze cherubic plaque mounted to top. The plaque consists of a very well modelled reclining sleeping cherub, complete with a bow and quiver of arrows.

This may have originally been made as a romantic and enduring gift for someone.

The moulded edges of the base as well as the hinged rising lid are accented with ebony strips, while the oak interior has a movable shaped partition to allow customisation of the space for letters, bills, or whatever one likes.

Size-10 inches long by 6 inches deep by 6.5 inches high.

A truly unique box, very suitable for a desk or table.

With excellent colour, grain and patina, this is in very good condition.

A great gift for the collector of antique boxes and smalls, and a very functional piece for desk or table.

Declaration

Strictly Vetted Dealers

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.

Secure Transit

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.

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.
