This Pearl Merchant Chest (Tawash), crafted from Indian teak wood, adds to its durability and historical charm. Indian teak is known for its strength and rich grain, which would have complemented the intricate craftsmanship and detailing typical of these chests. Such use of high-quality materials underscores the chest’s value, both as a functional item for secure storage in the pearl trade and as a prized piece in antique collections today.
This oak wood stick with a nickel head from the Victorian era (1819-1901) sounds like a remarkable piece, combining oak’s durability with nickel’s sleek finish. Victorian walking sticks often symbolize elegance and status so this item would be a great addition to a historical collection, especially for those interested in Victorian-era artifacts.
This wooden stick is like a unique item, especially with the original Emirates logo and brass detailing. The 62 cm length and design make it suitable for display or as part of a collection.
