A practical and characterful Edwardian cash box, finished in a black japanned exterior with subtle gilt detailing.

The box retains its original hinged lid and working lock, accompanied by a key, offering both functionality and period authenticity.

Inside, the box features a removable inner tray with compartment sections, designed for organising coins or small valuables.

Beneath the tray sits a larger storage compartment, providing additional space for notes or documents.

The tray itself folds open, revealing multiple sections and maintaining the utilitarian design typical of early 20th century cash boxes.

The exterior shows age-related wear, adding to the piece’s historical character and evidencing its use over time. The simple yet robust construction reflects the practical craftsmanship of the Edwardian period.

Care instructions:
Keep in a dry environment to prevent further wear or corrosion. Clean gently with a soft cloth and avoid harsh chemicals that may damage the finish. Apply a light oil to the lock mechanism if required to maintain smooth operation.
