By purchasing from me you are contributing to my local food bank in Sequim (pronounced Skwim) Washington. I give a portion of my proceeds to them each quarter. Plumb Crazy Vintage is run by treasure hunter Joan Plumb, finding vintage, antique, and delightfully unique pieces with personality. I collect because I love the thrill of the hunt—and giving special finds a second life in a new home. If it makes me smile, it made the cut. I usually ship the 1st business day after purchase.
This charming heart-shaped box was originally made as a "puzzle box" in the 1970s-80s, and the secret sliding drawer functions. No other access to the box unless you can figure it out.
Details:
Solid wood with beautiful grain, light inlay band around middle, and large 3D carved bow on lid with dark wood "knot" center (see close-ups)
Interior is plain wood (not felt-lined), perfect for rings, earrings, tiny treasures, or a gift card
Good vintage condition: light surface scratches consistent with age, a few tiny nicks on bow edges (pictured), wood still smooth and warm
No cracks or splits, sits flat
These bow-top hearts were popular as love-token gifts and are getting hard to find. Even without the puzzle trick, it displays beautifully on a dresser or vanity.
Size: approx 5.5" across at widest point x 2.25" tall – see photos.
