Once used to store valuables in colonial-era India, this teak money box chest is a striking antique from the 19th century, distinguished by its deep patina and richly aged painted surface. The timeworn green finish€”now beautifully crackled and weathered€”reveals layers of history, whilst the coin slot in the top hints at its original purpose: safeguarding valuables such as jewellery and cash. Chests like this were often found in merchant homes and shops, where durability was paramount.

Crafted from teak wood, this piece retains its original hasp lock and hinges. Its practical size and rustic character make it ideal as a statement storage chest, bedside table, or decorative accent for interiors that appreciate aged authenticity and folk craftsmanship.
