Antique American Southern Box with Lid made from Walnut and Oak, Circa 1890

  

Antique American unpainted box with a removable lid likely of Southern origin circa 1890. This box was cleverly put together by a creative artisan carpenter with a walnut frame and oak panels on six bracket feet. There were copper brads used in its joinery. The lid fits snugly over the opening of the box. There is a central diamond shaped escutcheon plate around a keyhole leading to the remains of an interior lock.

Exterior dimensions - 11-1/2 x 7 x 4-1/2 inches more or less. Interior dimensions - 10-1/4 X 5-1/2 x 3-1/2 more or less. Condition This original antique box is in good condition.
