19th century
Sold by Puckerings
Description

A wonderfully impressive letter box used in hotels, private clubs and the grandest of private residences, these letter boxes would have collected the mail and a member of staff would then have taken it to the post office.

The front of the doors are panelled and a polished brass escutcheon houses a working (replacement) key.
