Antique Victorian Rosewood Inlaid Writing Slope

19th century
Description

A good example of an early 19th Century writing slope. It is made of rosewood with wonderful intricate brass inlay. Inside, the box is fitted with a dark maroon leather writing surface with a gilt tooled edge. It also comes with a pair of glass inkwells with brass tops. Below the writing surface is a secret compartment hiding three small sections which springs open when a piece of wood next to the inkwell is lifted.

It is in good condition for its age and displays well. There are signs of age and use, some old repairs and a small brass piece is missing in one corner but there are no major damages to the wood exterior. It does not come with a key. The interior is generally clean and tidy and the leather is in good order.

The best description comes from the photos so please look at them all carefully and if you have any questions just ask.

Tracked UK delivery £15.

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

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.
