Antique Gold Pineapple Box
This lovely Pineapple Box in antique gold will certainly add a touch of style and glamour to any room of the house and it's also practical!
Pineapples have always been a sign of wealth and were prized in colonial America for their sweet, juicy pulp. These scarce delicacies became symbols of hospitality and a popular door carving at prosperous households (pineapples became so prized as status symbols that colonial produce merchants would rent them to hostesses wishing to make a big impression).
They have also traditionally always been used in decorative objects and this gilded box carries on that tradition.
Approx: 30cm high
