1920s Slim Wooden Packing Crate Ideal as a Desk Tray
This most honest old slimline wooden crate, makes for superb home office storage, is large enough to use as a rustic kitchen caddy, or used as a fireside 'companion' filled with kindling.
We love its rich, aged patina, offering just the right amount of rustic character to be a versatile accent in any space.
Key Points:
• An old slimline wooden storage/grocer's crate
• Solid wooden construction
• A wonderful styling accent with a lovely rustic feel
History:
Sourced from our family farm, this dates from around the 1930's, and is beautifully distressed but most solid.
Good to know:
With an interior dimension of 210mm wide it fits standard A4 paper (210x297mm) exactly.
Year of manufacture:
c.1920s - 1930s
Origin:
England
Approximate Measurements:
Internal Dimensions: 21cm (8.25") W x 35cm (13.75") L
External Dimensions: 23cm (9") W x 36.5cm (14.35") L
H: 5cm (2")
Condition:
In characterful vintage condition, showing some lovely age related wear that has softened its corners and edges in places, leaving behind a wonderful aged patina. Please note that this item has been heavily used in its lifetime and not in anyway a 'new wooden box' and although it has been gently vacuumed, it still carries plenty of dust and ingrained debris from a life well lived, so is not dust/dirt free. Like many, it has not been jet washed in fear of causing unnecessary damage.

Buyers Guide:
It is very important to note, that all the pieces Roof + Roof sell are genuine pieces of age, each having a rich and varied past and are never sold as in new condition. With this in mind, minor blemishes, surface scratches, manufacturing flaws and a general sense of their age and history are naturally to be expected. We always try, to the best of our ability to honestly and clearly communicate an items condition, both in our description and photography, highlighting anything over and above what we perceive as ‘general age related wear and tear'. We kindly ask you look closely at all our photos, using the zoom facility, as these naturally form part of the item's description.
Please be aware that your monitor, tablet, or mobile device may emulate colours/tones differently 'on screen' to that of the actual physical item, all of which are photographed and shown to the best of our abilities. Any item/prop shown in our photography is used for styling purposes only. Prior to purchasing, if you would like further clarification on any item, then we are always happy to help in any way possible.
