The interior writing slope of embossed black leather is in good original condition. The first interior section locks with a key, when opened it reveals the makers label and a storage tray, which can be lifted out to reveal a further storage space under and a spring-loaded panel, which when ‘triggered’, reveals three ‘secret-drawers’.
The front half of the writing slope opens by means of brass clips, to reveal a further storage area with ribbon note store.
