Betjemann

Betjemann & Sons - George Betjemann and his two sons George William Betjemann and John Betjemann.

Innovative cabinet and box makers that featured their own Betjemann patent mechanisms. The company was located in London and ran from the mid 19th century through to the late 1930s. They created high quality jewellery boxes with elaborate opening mechanisms.

They were also known for the 'The Betjemann Tantalus'. A Tantulus is a small wooden cabinet containing two or three decanters. What made the 'Betjemann Tantulas' different was that it had a lock and key. That meant it could still be out on display for all to see but prevented unauthorised people from drinking the contents.

Other items included patent bookslides, patent locking decanters, inkwells and cigarette boxes.
