Grand Antique English Letters Box - 23" Tall - Magnificent

Sold by Puckerings
Description

The grandest of them all quite obviously from a smart London hotel, private club or magnificent private residence.

Dating to around 1900, late Victorian or early Edwardian in period, these table top letter boxes were used to collect the outgoing mail for a member of staff to take to the post office for mailing .. those civilized days!!

Most were of course more modest than this, this is a top-notch example, the perfect accent for the smartest of entry halls, an interior decorators dream.

Made from solid English walnut wood with a stunning colour, there is a drawer to the bottom which would perhaps contained stationary and mailing supplies such as sealing wax,

The front is beautifully inlaid with hand painted lettering. The brass fittings have all been meticulously professionally cleaned to gleam.

In superb condition complete with working key, it towers an impressive 23" tall x 12 1/2" wide x 8 3/4" deep.

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.
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.
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.
