Set of Three Antique Nesting Hump-Backed Boxes

Unavailable
Set of three antique nesting hump-backed boxes, in natural hues with burgundy velvet-like interiors. These very charming and unusual boxes appear to be wood or heavy cardboard, covered by a woven linen-like fabric, with dried leaves applied in a patterned design. The bottom of each box is covered in heavy black paper. The large box measures approximately 4 inches high, 6 inches wide, and 4 inches deep; the middle box is about 3.5 inches high, 5.25 inches wide, and 3.25 inches deep; the small box is about 3 inches high, 4.5 inches wide, and 2.5 inches deep. The boxes are in good condition, sturdy and intact. There is some loss of the exterior "leaf" layer, especially on the large box; there is also some discoloration near the bottom edge of the large box. Wear is apparent on the box bottoms. The interiors show some wear and age but are in relatively good condition. Please refer to the 4 photographs for appearance and condition. Shipping / packaging will be $11.00.
