Lovely Pair of 19th Century Treen Boxes with Paint Decorated, Threaded Lids quilt reminding me of grain/sponge paintedThese I am fairly certain are British, hand painted blonde wood, with threaded tops, mid 19th century or perhaps a bit earlier I believe. Lovely things, in lovely condition, useful for all sorts of things. Each 1 3 4" d x 1 3 4" t. Sold as a pair. A few small nicks around the bottom edges of the tops and general light wear; overall very good condition.
