Small Antique Leather Domed Stationery Box - Original Contents - Dated 1864

19th century
Sold by Puckerings
Description

A wonderful small English leather caddy with beautiful gilt and blue line decoration all around with a personalized gold embossed cartouche to the top H.F.G to M.G. 1862.

The interior is quite remarkable with three sizes of original envelopes, much smaller than modern day ones, this is the size that was used in the Victorian era. I am assuming this only originally carried the envelopes as there is no room for cards .. it appears full and untouched.

There is concertinaed piece of blotting paper in a small compartment and what I like most is the original little glass glue pot, undamaged and retaining the original top and brush, this was used to glue the envelopes sealed.

The interior of the lid has the original cream silk and the leather is stamped with the London retailer's signature; Acton Griffith, 8 Baker St.

A wonderful box in lovely condition, alas no key. 5 3/4" x 3" x 4 1/4" tall.

Item ID: 31488
