Vintage ex-museum archive box c.1950 made from vulcanized cardboard with internal aluminium frame and rivets for extra rigidity.  

The boxes were specially made for a well-known central London museum to store important documents and rare artefacts, yet they were never used, only recently being discovered in a forgotten store room belonging to the museum. Their ox-blood colour and heavy-duty construction reflect our hardware store aesthetic, and the box offers useful and handsome storage solutions for today’s office and home. 

Length 55cm Width 30cm Depth 8cm

For that extra-special gift through the post, we also offer the box branded with A G Hendy & Co labels and at a discounted price.  Click here.
