AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

No reserve price!

Unusual and rare haberdashery box, of Portuguese origin, from the 19th century.

Made with wood salvaged from old Port wine crates, still bearing the decorations/logos of the companies they once belonged to, and then assembled/nailed together by someone in times long past.

It is in very good structural condition, very solid, showing many signs of use as can easily be seen in the photos, but these give it a lot of charm, authenticity, and genuineness.

Seller's Story

Antiques are my great passion; all the items I have on auction were found at antique fairs and antique shops mainly from the Lisbon area, but also from the rest of Portugal, a country with a centuries-old history and many fabulous pieces and objects from this long journey, which I present here for auction. Only pieces of good quality, distinctly original, and obviously beautiful. Guarantee of quality and great care in the shipping of the items. Thank you.
