Leather Bound Box

19th century
For Sale by Antiquesaddictive (Reserved for a buyer)
Description

Small leather bound Box in classic Regency Form. The leather has been incised with a cross hatch pattern with four decorative low corner pillars, the front two have decorative brass caps and the back two being less distinct. At the top there is a circular brass decoration with a top central almost wheatsheaf like brass detail. Internally it has been leather lined. And if that isn’t enough to intrigue you on the underside someone has painted a face. It also has brass feet of typical regency form.

Intentionally, I haven't had it restored or cleaned as half the enjoyment of owning such an exquisite item is being able to transform it from the unusual to the spectacular and watching it evolve.

Antique leather-bound caskets are decorative, small-scale storage containers produced predominantly during the 18th and 19th centuries to store jewellery, trinkets, or sewing implements. These boxes were commonly designed with stepped lids, fine tooling, and metal mounts to reflect popular decorative arts trends of the era.

Traditional leather boxes feature a solid wooden carcass clad in fine leather, which was heat-embossed or blind-tooled with geometric and floral patterns. Brass elements, including turned ball feet, top mounts, and hook clasps, were added for structural reinforcement and visual embellishment.

Authentic antique leather boxes display genuine signs of age, including natural surface patination, edge wear, and hand-fitted brass hardware or hinges. Look for hand-tooled cross-hatch or diapering patterns, period-appropriate brass clasps, and wooden interiors rather than modern synthetic linings.

Position the leather box on a desk, console table, or sideboard alongside brass accessories or leather-bound books to introduce rich texture and character. Its compact proportions also make it ideal for styling within a bookshelf display or on a bedside table.

Dust the box regularly with a soft, dry cloth and position it away from direct sunlight or radiators to prevent the leather from drying out. Avoid water and liquid detergents, applying a specialised conservation leather wax sparingly if nourishment is required.
