Condition:
Green Bail Handle Box - Excellent antique condition commensurate with age and use. The original painted surface shown the perfect amount of wear, as detailed in images, with natural overall finish variation. One of the wood pegs securing the handle to the body was likely replaced early in its life with a hand-carved version. The end of the bail handle has a small horizontal crack, with the end still attached (we’ve chosen to leave this as-is without repair, but it can easily be remedied).
Cream Lidded Storage Box - Great antique condition. Natural overall painted surface finish variation commensurate with age and use. A couple small cracks along body joins and top lip of body as detailed in images.
