An absolutely stunning American primitive tea caddy/trinket box with dovetail design, checkerboard inlay, and a carved top. Likley circa 1850 to 1890, although it could be older. Recently retrieved in southern Pennsylvania, likely a centuries old family heirloom from one of the local residents. The wood is very dense and is obviously from old growth forest. The character / patina is irresistible. I love everything about it.

This piece measures 5.75 inches times 3 5/8 inches times 3 inches. A perfect primitive for the center of a small table.
