Antiques, Fine Art & CollectiblesAntique Edwardian English Wooden Post Box Country Estate Glass Postal Box 1910s
DESCRIPTION
Antique English oak wooden postal box. Dating to the Edwardian period (1901-1910) this postal service box would have been found inside the foyer of a large Edwardian mansion or stately home. All outgoing post was placed into the receptacle and the local post master would have collected in from the foyer upon admittance to the property by the housekeeper. Only the grandest of estate would have had this privilege prior to the postal service as maintained today. The beass escutcheon on the front has the words for post on it.
A great addition to your vintage home decor, Edwardian or Downton style collection.
MEASUREMENTS
The box measures 12" long by 5.5" wide by 10" tall and weighs 3lbs 12oz.
CONDITION
In solid working clean condition with wear and tear commensurate with age but alas no key (please see all pictures as they form part of the condition description).
