English usage of the term was not widespread until the end of the 18th century, and when introduced probably referred to the box or chest which housed porcelain or metal bottles. When tea was first introduced in England, it was taken only in small quantities for medicinal purposes. Yet this single imported commodity was destined to inspire almost two centuries of social ritual and decorative arts. The largest and most diverse group of caddies are the wooden boxes or chests. The high cost of tea assured its status as a luxury item and necessitated a secure container for its storage and display. \"The lady of the house kept the key and ceremoniously spooned the tea leaves to the mixing bowl or infusion pot using a caddy spoon.\" \"The construction and decoration of these containers was a reflection of the social rank of the owner.

Born in Venice, Sormani trained as a cabinetmaker. In the mid 1800's, he moved to Paris and opened his first shop in 1847. He specialized in making fine “meubles de luxe”, (deluxe furniture) in the style of Louis XV and Louis XVI. Paul Sormani rose to prominence through the patronage of Empress Josephine, wife of Napoleon III. His work was described in the 1867 Exposition Universelle catalogue as “toute sa production revele une qualite d’execution de tout premier ordre”. Sormani exhibited in Paris in 1849, 1855, 1862, 1867, 1878 and 1900, and in London in 1862, winning numerous medals. Amongst the items Sormani exhibited at the 1900 Exposition Universelle were a Louis XV style bureau and a Louis XVI style commode both based on originals held in the Jones Collection at the South Kensington Museum. It can be difficult to date Sormani's work, as the firm was in production for nearly ninety years. However, when Paul Sormani died in 1877, his wife and son took over the business and from this date onwards pieces are normally signed 'Veuve Sormani \u0026amp; Fils'.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Antique Boutique","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39844869537886,"sku":"BX-2950","price":2245.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2444\/7807\/products\/antiqueFrenchpaulsormaniParisgameboxmarquetryboxgametokensgamingpokerplayingchips91.jpg?v=1667594453"},{"product_id":"antique-french-cut-crystal-glass-box-casket-gilt-bronze-mounts","title":"Antique French Cut Crystal Glass Box, Casket, Gilt Bronze Mounts","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"\" onclick=\"$(this).removeClass('ellipsis');\" itemprop=\"description\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAntique 19th century French cut crystal box.
