Please Note
I am an antique and vintage seller. All vintage and antique items have flaws. That is the nature and charm of aged and well-loved decor. If you are looking for pristine new decor, please do not purchase vintage or antique items from my shop. Everything I carry will show signs of age, use, and history. Please look closely at all photographs and read the description carefully before purchasing.
There’s something special about pieces that were never meant to be decorative, yet become the most beautiful objects in a home.
This early 20th-century Cherry Burrell dairy box, circa 1900–1925, began its life as a hardworking piece of American farm and creamery history. Today, it has evolved into a striking functional decor piece, perfectly suited for a thoughtfully curated farmhouse interior.
With its timeworn wood, original iron hardware, and authentic interior stencil from Boston’s Cherry Burrell Co., this box carries the quiet character that only age and honest use can create.
A Statement in Both Form and Function
Styled as a coffee station organizer, this piece effortlessly blends beauty and utility. Use it to store coffee packets, filters, tea essentials, or kitchen linens, or simply let it anchor a warm, layered countertop vignette.
It is the kind of piece that makes a space feel collected, not decorated.

Interior Curator Styling Notes

• modern rustic homes
• industrial-inspired spaces

This is a genuine antique item and will show signs of age, use, and wear consistent with its history. These characteristics are part of what make it special and are not considered flaws.
Shipping Note
Your piece will be carefully packaged using high-quality materials to ensure safe delivery. I do not profit from shipping and gladly combine shipping on multiple purchasesAntique and vintage item condition
Please remember that vintage and antique items have lived full lives before reaching your home. Signs of age such as light scratches, surface wear, patina, minor discoloration, tiny flea bites, manufacturing irregularities, age-related fading, crazing, tarnish, or other imperfections are common and should be expected with previously owned pieces. I do my absolute best to carefully inspect, photograph, and describe each item honestly and thoroughly; however, due to the nature of vintage and antique goods, there may occasionally be minor signs of wear, imperfections, repairs, or age-related characteristics that are overlooked or not immediately visible during inspection. These characteristics are considered part of the charm, authenticity, and history of vintage and antique items and are not typically considered defects. Please review all photos carefully and feel free to ask any questions prior to purchase, as all sales are based on the understanding that these pieces are pre-owned and will naturally show evidence of age and use over time. I do not refund based on "this wasn't what I expected". My pictures are very clear and obvious. The only thing you might not be able to discern without an in-person inspection might be color as that can be different from one monitor to another. However, I explain the colors very clearly and that should never be cause for a return.
Aged Metals
Aged metals—including sterling silver, silver plate, brass, and copper—naturally develop character over time. Silver will tarnish (a normal oxidation process), while brass and copper may darken, dull, or develop patina and verdigris. I do not polish these finishes, as many collectors value the depth, warmth, and authenticity they bring. You may also see light wear, including areas where silver plate has thinned to reveal underlying metal, along with age spots, surface variations, or minor discoloration. These are not defects, but expected signs of age that reflect the history and unique character of each piece. I do not accept returns because something was not polished or has rust or other logical conditions for aged pieces. My pictures are very clear.
