Rare Amboyna Military Georgian Campaign Triple Writing Slope.

18th century
Description

An officers campaign writing slope of large proportions and of outstanding quality.

Showing a great colour with a wonderful patina.

This completely fully brass bound triple campaign desk made from Amboyna has a fully fitted interior of solid Rosewood with Ebony detailing and is dated to circa 1790-1800.

Every edge, the corners and even the side drawer is finished with brass, one of the brass side carrying handles although, the side-drawer handle, shows more use and wear than the other.

The secret drawers are of rosewood with small leather handles and the writing surfaces are of Rosewood with a green embossed velvet skiver edged with Ebony. This campaign writing slope comes with three glass and silver plated ink bottles, probably replaced at some point. The hidden folio wallets are made from vellum.

The protective cloth covering the underside of the slope has been replaced in the past.

The original lock and key are in good working order, and the central brass plaque on top of the writing box is blank.

For Export: There is no Ivory or Tortoise Shell on this item.

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.
