Topic: Holmegaard "Skjold" preservative jar???

[Seventh_Tree]

I was wondering what this would've been used for?
It has a teak lid,which fits pefectly on the top so, I don't think it's something someone made up.
I'm not really at all familiar with the "Skjold" range so ,if there's any online galleries with more pieces, I'd love to see more. 

Thanks

The lid on your trinket box is incorrect - it should look like this:

I've a couple of pieces of Skjold on my shop website - I've not yet got around to listing them on my Holmegaard gallery site.

Cheers Nic,
I thought the teak lid was a little odd lol
If anyone has a spare glass lid.....
I managed to get hold the blue version(with glass lid) today

Fantastic website by the way, keep up the great work.

Sounds like you're just tripping over Skjold in your neck of the woods. 

I found a less-terrible photograph of my blue box - just for on-site reference:

The one with the hole in the teak lid might have been a string dispenser. These were very popular things to have in, I think, the 1970s for some reason!
