TWO CHINESE WHITE METAL TEA CADDIES, LARGER EXAMPLE WITH SEAL MARK UNDER BASE
both of ovoid form, with fitted inner lids, and domed flat covers, with dark grey patination to bodies (2)
Dimensions: Heights: 10 1/4 in. (26 cm.), and 9 3/4 in. (24.8 cm.)

Condition: Larger caddy: has impressed seal mark which I cannot read under base. Cover has dent which is not visible but you can feel it. Nice patination to cover, but it falls away naturally at shoulders. Some scattered abrasions from wear and use. Both foot rings show wear. Both with inner liners and are very heavy! Smaller piece has similar condition to larger but does not have dent to cover. Attractive patina, both covers with solidly grey covers and variagation to bodies.
