What is an antique table box used for?

These boxes served functional roles in period homes to hold personal valuables, letters, sewing paraphernalia, tobacco or tea. Today they sit on sideboards, desks and dressing tables to store modern jewellery, keepsakes and desktop accessories.

How can I date an antique silver box?

Silver pieces usually carry hallmarking stamps indicating the assay office, standard mark and a specific date letter. Matching these stamps against registry records reveals the exact year of manufacture and the silversmith responsible.

What is the difference between a trinket box and a table casket?

Trinket boxes are generally smaller receptacles intended for dressing tables to hold rings and pins. Table caskets are larger, heavier decorative boxes constructed from silver, wood or lacquer to sit prominently on tabletops.

How do I care for wooden and silver table boxes?

Wooden boxes benefit from occasional wax polishing to nourish the grain and prevent the timber from drying out. Silver boxes require gentle cleaning with a soft cloth to preserve crisp repousse details without damaging any interior velvet linings.
