"En Route Tea Basket" produced by Drew & Sons Piccadilly Circus, London. I don't know if it was to be used via train or auto
Research was made, and apparently theses baskets came in an array of sizes.
All inclusive - pictures say it all; Each brass piece is engraved with "AEW"; 3 bottles in perfect condition with cork and ground tops; oil burner is in perfect condition with all parts, ready to heat water (seperate brass container) and or pot of tea.
The only sign of use is the baasket had been burn somehow, lower front, and one of the leather strapes needs to be re-sewn.
Found at an Estate Sale in NY.
Love this, it's so british! Ofcourse you have to be sure that you will be able to properly prepare your tea! :-)
