About this Item

A Chinese Export black lacquer and gilt tea caddy, 19th century

During the 18th century in England, tea caddies were made in a great variety of materials such as wood, silver, porcelain, pewter, and tortoiseshell. The tea caddy was fitted with a lock and key as it was an expensive commodity.
