Otto is a beautifully characterful antique Indian wooden merchant’s box, chosen by Home Barn for its wonderfully timeworn surface, rich dark tones and decorative original ironwork.

Small in scale but full of presence, Otto has the authentic patina that can only develop through age and use. The dark timber is worn in places to reveal warmer wood beneath, while the old iron hasp, keyhole, decorative metalwork and carrying handles add another layer of history and texture.

Originally created as a practical storage box for treasured possessions, today Otto makes a fascinating decorative antique storage box for a contemporary home. Style it on a console or sideboard, place it on a large coffee table, or use it on open shelving to introduce an unexpected antique element amongst books, ceramics and more contemporary pieces.  We also love these boxes used in bathrooms and in kitchens. 

This is exactly the kind of antique we love at Home Barn: useful, individual and beautifully imperfect, bringing genuine history into an interior without feeling formal or precious.

Why You’ll Love Otto

  • Genuine antique piece sourced from India
  • Completely unique – only one available
  • Beautiful rich dark wood with naturally aged patina
  • Original decorative ironwork and carrying handles
  • Useful concealed storage
  • Compact enough for a console, sideboard, coffee table or shelving
  • An easy way to introduce a genuine antique into a contemporary interior
  • Individually selected by Home Barn for its character and decorative appeal

Antique Character

As a genuine antique, Otto bears the wonderful evidence of his previous life. Expect historic knocks, scratches, rubbed areas, colour variation, worn edges, old repairs and naturally aged and oxidised metalwork.

These characteristics are integral to the piece and are precisely why we chose it. Otto has not been made to look old – his character has been earned over time.

Dimensions: Height 17cm Width 33cm Depth 21cm

Please note: Otto is completely unique. The antique Indian box photographed is the exact piece you will receive.
