D and A Binder Ltd has dated this Victorian Oak Instrument Case to the Victorian era.
A small engraved brass plaque is inset into the lid, bearing the name of a previous owner.
The case opens to reveal a fitted interior arranged over two levels, with a removable upper tray and a series of shaped compartments designed to hold individual instruments and accessories. The interior has been re-lined in blue velvet at a later date, following the original fitted arrangement.
The case is now empty, but retains its complete fitted layout and makes an attractive piece of late 19th century technical and scientific furniture in its own right.
There are marks, scratches and general wear to the exterior consistent with age and use, while the later blue lining remains in particularly good condition.
