Plumb Crazy Vintage is run by me, Joan Plumb. I've always loved the thrill of the hunt — the estate sale early mornings, the tucked-away antique malls, the joy of spotting something special that deserves a second life. I collect vintage, antique, and delightfully unique pieces that have character and make me smile. Every piece in the shop is chosen by hand and ready for a new home. I pack with care and ship the first business day after purchase. Your purchase helps fund my local food bank.
This charming heart-shaped box was originally made as a "puzzle box" in the 1970s-80s, and the secret sliding drawer functions.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.
