Elizabethan 16th Century Diminutive Cedar Wood Table Casket or Desk Box

The late 16th century Elizabeth I Diminutive Cedar wood table casket or desk box, Circa 1600. England.

The raised and moulded top slides open to reveal a recessed well.
The entire moulded ‘caddy’ with applied edge-mouldings to all faces opens on strap hinges to a box interior exposing an internal sliding peg to the lockable sliding panelled frieze with pyramid centres, concealing four small drawers around a central deeper drawer above a long drawer, all with edge mouldings and turned handles. Raised on an intricately moulded base and raised on what is believed to be all of the original reeded bun feet.

It should be noted – Caskets of this form from the Elizabethan period are extremely rare.
This casket is one of the most accomplished and original examples to be discovered. The colour and patination of the original surfaces are outstanding. Sensational.
