This listing is for a wonderful Victorian antique tea caddy. It is silver plated, marked Shield Brand, Superior Electro Plate, Made in England on the base.

The top is adorned with a kangaroo, there are lions heads on either side. It is beautifully engraved with flowers and leaves. There is a very solid hinge on the back of the lid. Inside is a piece of cardboard that came with it - this was Second Prize in a Wheat Crop Competition.

An unusual piece of Australiana that could still be used as a tea caddy or for a variety of other storage purposes. Approx 16cm x 13cm x 17cm high.

There are holes near the lions mouths where silver rings would have originally have been. Could be replaced, but it looks quite okay without them. There is some plate wear and scratches consistent with use and age. Could do with a bit of a polish.
