Rare early 19th century Toleware spice box or tin with original nutmeg grater. The necessity for these boxes to be made was largely due to the high price of spice in this era and the desire to keep them safe from pilferers. Under lock and key, hence the clasp.
Condition commensurate with age and use. Surface scratches, small losses to paint work, minor surface rust as you would expect.
Height 16cm including handle.
