In A Nutshell Antiques and Interiors has dated this piece to the Victorian era.
The box is fitted with a good quality blue leather writing surface with a gilt tooled edge. It comes with a pair of blue glass inkwells with hinged brass tops and its original pen tray. Both top and bottom sections of the writing surface lift up to reveal extra storage space below. There is a nice hand written inscription below one surface dated May 26th 1846.
The box is in very good condition for its age.
The leather writing surface is in excellent order and the interior is generally clean and tidy. It has been cleaned and lightly polished and is ready for use.
The best description comes from the photos so please look at them all carefully and if you have any questions just ask.
