This exquisite wooden barrel moneybox is a true gem for collectors of Victorian-era antiques. Made in the style of Mauchline ware and originating from Germany, this original piece dates back to the years between 1850 and 1899. It features intricate details and has been preserved in excellent condition, making it a valuable addition to any collection.

The moneybox is designed as a barrel, with a removable lid and a slit for inserting coins or bills. Its unique charm lies in the beautifully crafted exterior, which showcases the popular Mauchline style of the time and Crystal Palace Exhibition. This antique is perfect for display or use and is sure to be a conversation starter. I’m not sure but think this would have been an original souvenir from 1851.
