The hinged lid opens out to create a sloped writing / work surface and it has a pen storage. One of the small divides lifts up and this reveals three small secret drawers hidden behind a piece of wood. This is a superb quality antique box and the Coromandel has aged to a rich shade with a striking grain, good patina, is in very good condition and has been beautifully cleaned using a traditional form of beeswax finishing.
