Vintage Signed Wooden Bombe Tea Caddy Box Brass Bail Handles

Small signed boxes like this one carry a name collectors know: Alfred Assid, whose script signature turns up on the underside of small colonial-style reproduction furniture and boxes. This bombé-shaped tea caddy is made in the spirit of an 18th-century English caddy, with a stepped lid, bracket feet and an aged, speckled finish. It would look good on a console or mantel, or hold keepsakes, trinkets or desk odds and ends.

Details

• A wooden box with a reddish-brown stained finish, signed in script on the bottom.
• The fitted lid has a brass-tone pull, and brass bail handles sit on both sides.
• The interior is plain wood, with no liner or compartments.
• A vintage reproduction in the antique tea caddy style.

Condition: Scratches and rubbed edges on the sides, small finish chips on the lid edge and box rim, and scuffed feet. No cracks. The distressed finish is part of the look. See photos for the exact wear.
