Description

A fine quality Coromandel-wood and brass-bound Decanter box with two decanters, complete with stoppers, by famous boxmaker: W. Leuchars, of No. 38 Piccadilly, London.

The superb grain pattern to all outer-surfaces is typical of the beautiful Coromandel wood of the time. Bound around each edge with high quality polished brass fittings to protect against accidental knocks and damage to the wood. The heavy lid opens to reveal the two cut glass lead crystal decanters inside. Each within its own storage section. The two decanters are simply decorated to the base and to the stoppers. The stoppers are in very good condition with just minor flea-bite nips. No large chips or cracks.

Within the lid, a gilded makers label for Leuchars can be found inside. With a blank rectangular cartouche externally to the top.
