About the Item

A brass bound Anglo-Indian teak Decanter Box for 4 bottles. The Box is well made with both brass edging and straps screwed on. To the sides are skeletal campaign handles and the escutcheon is a diamond shape. The box has a key. The interior has dividers to separate the 4 replaced decanters but is not lined in a cushioning material such as velvet or leather as most English boxes are. The top of the box has an engraved brass plate noting the owner as ‘Wm Durrant’. There were a few William Durrants in India in the first half of the 19th century with not enough evidence to pick one as prime candidate for the owner of the box. Most decanter boxes used by officers or travellers are British or European and it is uncommon to find one made in India or to see one in teak. Early to mid 19th Century.
