Stunning Folding Burr Tantalus/Decanter Box & Glasses

  

A stunning tantalus/decanter box with swing out doors dating to C1890/1910. Unsure of what type of burr wood it is but have been told it may be pollard oak or burr birch. Fantastic colour and grain and is in excellent all round condition having been professionally conserved a few years ago by an antiques restorer. The inside retains its plush purple velvet lid liner glass holders and leather sections.

The lock is by "bramah" but there is no key but easy to have one cut should you require. The full hobnail decanters are in excellent order with only one stopper base having a few very minor nibbles and decanters have no damage. There are four base glasses with greek key pattern and six smaller glasses that fit in brass holders. These may have been replaced but fit well and look the part. The box itself is in wonderful condition and has no damage and all doors and lid close flush with the lock having locating pins.

Box measures 10 inches high[26cm] x 12.5 ins wide[32cm] x 8 ins deep[21cm]. A fabulous item with great decorative appeal and useful purpose. It is a heavy item but will be very well packed. Please feel free to ask questions or tel 01225 863706 or 07512431858 for a chat.
