FAQs

A netting box was traditionally used to store delicate tools, thread, and shuttles required for the Victorian pastime of making decorative lace or netting.

These boxes were typically constructed from softwood or hardwood, often featuring hand-painted floral motifs, decoupage, or lacquered finishes applied by hand.

Authentic pieces generally exhibit period-appropriate joinery such as hand-cut dovetails, genuine age-related patination on the painted surfaces, and traditional interior linings.

This type of decorative small box works well displayed on a coffee table, console, or bookshelf to store small items while adding a touch of historical character.

Preserve the finish by keeping the box away from direct sunlight and excessive humidity, dusting gently with a dry microfibre cloth without using liquid polishes.
