Regency Starburst Tortoiseshell Tea Caddy

This absolutely stunning Regency Starburst pressed bow-fronted Tortoiseshell Tea Caddy has a silver initial plate to the centre of the starburst front and silver-plated ball feet & finial and silver ball feet.

The interior lid of this striking tea caddy is lined with purple silk, with the base having two Tortoiseshell-lidded compartments with turned-bone knobs. The interior still retains most of its tin lining.

This beautiful bow-fronted Tortoiseshell Tea caddy comes with a fully working lock & tasselled key.

When the tea caddy is positioned – to catch the light, the radiating starburst panel is simply stunning. This is beautifully complementary to the shining silver balls and initial plate. View this in further detail and see how it catches the light via our Youtube Channel. Click STARBURST TEA CADDY.
