19th C. Brass Humidor or Tea Caddy

Date: late 19th C.

This is a great old object with lots of character and patina. It is either a humidor or a tea caddy or tin. It is lined on the inside with tin and on the outside with embossed brass. The pattern on three of the sides and lid is a lovely intertwined Arabic or Oriental design. The front face is of an old wooden sailing ship at sea. The knob on the lid is held in place with a screw bolt and the linings are held with brass pins. It has a nice heavy weight to it. It appears to have had feet at one time
