In A Nutshell Antiques and Interiors has dated this piece to the 19th Century.
The box itself has a large shaped pen tray, two spaces for inkwells with sliding wooden lids and storage compartments with lift up lids. The whole of the top tray lifts out to reveal a large storage area below.
It is a lovely looking box and it is in very good condition for its age. It has been cleaned and the brass has been gently polished and it displays very well inside and out. There are no major damages. There are some signs of age and use, some small knocks and marks, a repaired chip by one back hinge and some old repairs to splits in the stationery rack but nothing untoward or detrimental.
The best description comes from the photos so please look at them all carefully and if you have any questions please ask.
