In A Nutshell Antiques and Interiors has dated this piece to the Victorian era.
The box opens to reveal three writing pads as well as a pen tray, stamp slops and the original glass inkwell all in the top part of the box. The lid folds down to provide a writing surface and provides a useful storage section behind this for paper etc. The bottom part of the box folds upwards to reveal a row of letter or document holders and a further large storage section.
The box is in good condition for its age. It has been well used and the leather has worn over time and has some stains, wear and minor losses which has created a wonderful authentic worn patina. The lock works and comes with its original key. Inside, it is generally clean and tidy with a few small marks and signs of use but nothing detrimental. Overall the box displays very well and is certainly a nice usable item.
The best description comes from the photos so please look at them all carefully and if you have any questions please ask.
