Your bedroom is so very elegant, I am sure your boxes are very happy in their surroundings. I do like boxes, although I do not own any antique ones. When I was in the Antique business I was fortunate to buy and sell some lovely examples and handle others. I tend to prefer simpler boxes, made of yew or fruitwood, but I can appreciate the quality of the finer mahogany, rosewood,and walmut varieties. I also rather liked Tunbridge ware with their heavily inlaid patterns. Thankyou for sharing yours with us.<br /><br />Many thanks for your very kind e-mail. I thought it was about time I showed my face, although somewhat reluctantly!

It makes you wonder about how it was made, who was the first to buy it, what they did with it, how it got passed along...there's a story behind each and every one. That's why we have to be careful about what we purge from our own things these days. What's new to us now will be an antique years from now, and someone will wonder about its origins. Maybe we should all put a little note inside every box and piece of luggage we own for future finders!Alycia Nicholshttp://www.tabletwentyone.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3018159781509450916.post-3433084707303511902013-02-23T07:14:16.152-06:002013-02-23T07:14:16.152-06:00I do love old wooden boxes, too, Bonnie.

Your other antique boxes are so pretty! I love boxes, but I don't believe I have any antique ones. After seeing yours, I would certainly love to have some. :) This is such a pretty bedroom -- I love the tole tray hanging over the bed!<br /><br />I hope you have a great weekend, Bonnie!<br /><br />Hugs,<br /><br />DeniseDenise at Forest Manorhttp://houseatforestmanor.blogspot.com/2013/02/february-note-card-party.htmlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3018159781509450916.post-20753967548217142102013-02-22T17:57:28.316-06:002013-02-22T17:57:28.316-06:00The whole room is really pretty.
