Victorian Walnut Brass Bound Stationery Box C 1880 28cm in Excellent Condition

19th century
Description

Victorian walnut brass bound stationery box dating from c 1880 and in excellent, original condition.

The brass is all there and it looks excellent. When this lovely box arrived the brass was tarnished and dirty and so we have polished it, but that is all we had to do.

The walnut is beautifully figured, very attractive, and it is a great size to go on a desk or a hall table.

The inside is lined in blue silk and there are 3 sections. The small dividers have been removed which is quite usual for these as it enables the owner to keep larger items that the dividers prevent.

Free UK postage

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.

FAQs

A Victorian dome-top stationery box is a nineteenth-century desktop container designed with a curved lid, crafted to hold letters, envelopes, pens, and inkwells in domestic and commercial studies.

These containers were typically constructed from solid hardwoods or decorative veneers such as burr walnut, rosewood, and mahogany, often fitted with decorative brass straps, mounts, and fabric linings.

Authentic period examples exhibit hand-finished brasswork with natural surface patination, historical lock mechanisms, authentic veneer grain pattern variations, and age-consistent wear along the base.

It can be placed on a home office desk, console table, or library bookshelf to add warm timber tones and structured historical detail alongside contemporary accessories.

Dust the timber regularly with a soft cloth and apply microcrystalline wax sparingly to protect the veneer, avoiding harsh metal polishes that could damage surrounding wood finishes.
