Victorian Coromandel Tri Folding Writing Box with Original Interior, Excellent C
DESCRIPTION: VICTORIAN BOX.
A STUNNINGLY GORGEOUS QUALITY COROMANDEL STATIONERY/WRITING BOX WITH BRASS EDGING AND A BRASS ESCUTCHEON.
INTERNALLY THERE IS A LEATHER CASED REMOVABLE PAPER/LETTER HOLDER IN THE LID, 3 ALABASTER NOTE BLOCKS, COMPARTMENTS FOR INK BOTTLES (1 INCLUDED). IT THEN FURTHER OPENS TO REVEAL A WRITING SLOPE WITH COMPARTMENTS UNDERNEATH AND HAS THE ORIGINAL TOOLED MOROCCAN LEATHER WRITING SURFACE.
IN EXCELLENT CONDITION FOR ITS AGE THIS CAME FROM A HOUSE CLEARANCE AND I BELIEVE THIS WAS STORED AWAY FOR OVER 100 YEARS AS THERE ARE DOZENS OF NEWSPAPER CUTTINGS INSIDE WITH NONE LATER THAN 1911. CLIPPINGS WILL BE SENT WITH THE BOX.
CONDITION REPORT: BREAK IN THE BRASS EDGING ON THE FRONT; SLIGHT SPLIT TO WOOD ON ONE CORNER; ONE BROKEN CATCH ON THE LOCK CATCH PLATE (BUT LOCK STILL LOCKS USING THE ONE CATCH).
THE LOCK AND KEY ARE ORIGINAL AND WORKING.
PLEASE NOTE; THE KEYS ARE HANDMADE AND SPECIFIC TO THE LOCK SO REPLACEMENTS ARE HARD TO FIND, ALSO THE LOCKS ARE VERY OLD AND CAN FAIL, SO I’D ADVISE JUST USING THE KEYS MOSTLY AS DECORATION AND LOCKING THE BOX AS LITTLE AS POSSIBLE.
CONDITION: GOOD WITH JUST A FEW VERY MINOR MARKS COMMENSURATE WITH AGE AND USE (PLEASE SEE PHOTOS AS THESE FORM PART OF THE DESCRIPTION).
AGE/CULTURE:CIRCA 1850/BRITISH.
SIZE: LENGTH 34.5CM, WIDTH 24CM, HEIGHT 18CM.
IT HAS BEEN GIVEN A VERY LIGHT CLEAN AND A BEESWAX POLISH.
UNFORTUNATELY DUE TO EXCESS PAPERWORK AND CONDITIONS I NO LONGER SELL TO COUNTRIES IN THE EUROPEAN UNION.
CONDITION: GOOD WITH JUST A FEW VERY MINOR MARKS AND LIGHT SCRATCHES COMMENSURATE WITH AGE AND USE.
PLEASE NOTE THE MAJORITY OF MY ITEMS ARE OVER 100 YEARS OLD AND WILL SHOW WEAR AND TEAR AND AS SUCH NOT EVERY IMPERFECTION CAN BE DESCRIBED, SO PLEASE EXAMINE PHOTOS CAREFULLY.
