Antique English Oak and Brass " Post " & " Delivery " Letter Box C.1890

19th century
Sold by Puckerings
Description

I have had many of similar boxes such as these over the years but I have never come across one with this unusual and highly decorative brass front in this particular design. This one has a series of floral garlands gracing it's front.

This Victorian letters box was made to hang on the wall or sit table-top for collection of outing "Post" and letters for hand "Delivery".

These wonderful pieces would have been in a smart hotel, private club or aristocratic residence and mail placed in the box for taking either to the post office or hand delivered; very civilized!

Excellent condition, measuring 11 3/4" x 4 3/4" x 6" tall at rear.

Item ID: 32515

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. 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.
