Description

Adorned with a white metal handle the cross banded, moulded and ebony inlaid top sits over a similar cross-grain inlaid frieze, entirely veneered in small sections of choice cuts of cocuswood incorporating sapwood to each face.

Raised on the original cross-grain moulded base and four bracket feet.

The interior is later lined in a burgundy velvet.

The stop hinges and lock appear to be original.

It should be noted that this is an extremely accomplished and rare example in lovely condition and of very good colour with original patinated surfaces.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.
