In A Nutshell Antiques and Interiors has dated this piece to the Victorian era.
Inside, the lid of the box is fitted with various compartments for storing letters or envelopes. It comes with a pair of glass inkwells and there is a stamp slope and a pen tray.
Below the writing surface is a secret compartment hiding three small drawers and there is a additional side drawer which opens when a brass rod is lifted.
It is in very good condition for its age. There are no major damages to the wood exterior, just some small knocks and minor signs of age and use and a few small repairs but nothing detrimental and overall it still displays well. The box is generally clean and tidy inside.
The best description comes from the photographs so please look at them all carefully and if you have any questions just ask.
