Nest of Three Carved and Brass Inlaid Wooden Boxes



SOLD

Very nice set of three nested wooden boxes, probably sheesham, each with a diagonal floral pattern hand carved into the lid with inlaid brass leafes and branches. They are well made with brass hinges and all lids close snugly. The inside of the lid and base are covered in red velveteen, slightly more plush in the largest box although none are particularly worn, the fibres just compressed from storage. They do not appear to have been used much, if at all, and are therefore in very good condition with very few surface marks.

Small: 13.5cm x 5.5cm x 3.3cm. Compartment: 11cm x 3cm x 2cm
Medium: 17cm x 9cm x 4.5cm. Compartment: 14.5cm x 6.5cm x 3cm
Large: 20.3cm x 12.7cm x 6.3cm. Compartment: 17.5cm x 9.8cm x 4.5cm

Handmade Wooden Trinket Box with Honeycomb/Lattice Detail.



SOLD


Charming little sheesham wood trinket box with an unusual pointed lid. The tightly fitting unhinged lid has lattice fretwork detailing with a honeycomb pattern. The wood is in pretty good condition although there's a small nick at one end of the raised top and a very tiny crack which looks to be original (see inset).  There is a slight 'shaving' further along the top as well but overall the box is in very good condition. Ideal for jewellery, trinkets or pot pourri.12.2cm x 12.5cm x 7.5cm
