Vintage Wooden Banana Crate – JL Moore Darlington.

ABOUT THE CRATE: With its beautifully aged appearance, this banana crate adds a touch of history and character to any space. Stamped “JL Moore Banana Merchants Darlington” front and back, this crate is an authentic piece. With its basic hinged lid and hollowed out handles, the crate boats original features.

ITEM CONDITION: As expected, there is age related wear comprising of dents chips & scrapes, with the paint and writing clearer and more vibrant on the back of the crate. The hinges work well, although the early design means that they are loose.

The metal fixture around the sides is loose/broken in a few places, however this doesn’t affect the structure of the box – It’s still quite sturdy. Internally, there is 1 plank missing from the bottom and marks to the others. There are chips and dents in the paint & box, commensurate with age.

Dimensions: 87cm long, 30cm wide, 25cm high.
