A Pocket Watch Night or Travel Box, Brass Bound Inlaid Tulipwood, Ebony and Amboyna Veneer, Circa 1860

This exquisite small box is designed for holding and displaying a small pocket watch. It is finely made in mahogany with brass bound edges and exotically veneered in tulipwood, amboyna and ebony.

The hinged sloping top has a thick bevelled glass aperture to view the stored watch and look at the time.

The watch is located in a separate lift out velvet lined tray and there is a space below for a watch chain and fob.

The case has a brass button on the front edge which locks and unlocks the box when opened on its sturdy brass hinge.

This is the finest watch case/ holder we have ever offered for sale. It also comes with a solid silver pocket watch which fits the case and displays very well. The watch would need attention if it were required to work properly.
