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.
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.

Victorian jewellery boxes from the 19th century often featured rich wood veneers, such as burr walnut, alongside intricate brass mounts or inlaid details. Designed to secure valuable personal items, these caskets frequently included domed lids, plush fabric linings, and fitted compartments.

Craftsmen typically utilised solid wood frames covered in figured wood veneers like walnut or mahogany, secured with dovetail joints. Decorative elements included pierced brass straps, cast escutcheons, and polished brass handles attached with small pins or screws.

Authentic pieces show signs of period construction, including hand-cut joinery, natural age-related patination on metalwork, and era-appropriate lock mechanisms. The interior may feature original velvet or silk linings displaying light wear consistent with age.

A decorative wooden box serves as a functional accent on a sideboard, dressing table, or desk. Its warm wood tones and brass detailing introduce historical texture to contemporary or traditional spaces.

Keep the box away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent wood movement and veneer lifting. Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish occasionally, taking care around brass mounts to avoid residue build-up.
