All the added dividers within the tray can easily be repositioned or removed if desired. The tray can hold many rings in an upright position.
Underneath the additional tray and beneath the base of the box have also been lined in velvet to stop any scratches to other surfaces.
A superb box, and would make a fantastic gift.
We believe at MTS that the Antique boxes we sell are as important as the item of jewellery our customers buy.
We take pride in all our restorations, which are unique and fit in well with today’s taste and style. What better way to store your valuables than within a unique piece of Victorian or Georgian history. As an investment for the future, our boxes will never loose their appeal or charm, and should with care last all our lifetimes and beyond.
Please bear in mind that we try to give a reasonable account of restoration that's taken place, and try to highlight major points. The majority of our boxes are over one hundred years old. They are not new and may have antique marks, tiny missing pieces slight misalignment or shrinkage imperfections, and will have shown signs of fatigue. Its all normal for the age of any historic box. We try to restore to a good order but can not list every single mark. If you are unsure in any way before purchase please contact us for more information. we are only to pleased to offer help.
We take a lot of pride and care in what we do, and have been dealers and restorers for over thirty years.
