FAQs

A Georgian tea caddy is a lockable wooden container produced in 18th and early 19th-century Britain designed specifically to preserve and safeguard valuable loose tea leaves.

Georgian tea caddies were predominantly constructed from solid hardwoods such as mahogany, satinwood, or rosewood, frequently accented with fine boxwood stringing inlay, brass hardware, and bone escutcheons.

Authentic Georgian caddies generally display hand-cut dovetail jointing, natural timber shrinkage over time, period-appropriate brass fittings, original interior foil linings or staining, and a diamond or lozenge escutcheon.

An antique tea caddy can be styled on a sideboard top, bookshelf, or console table alongside contemporary ceramics and glassware to create textural contrast and visual interest.

Dust the timber regular with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a clear beeswax polish periodically to maintain the patination, keeping the object away from direct sunlight and radiators.
