Large Victorian walnut writing slope, crafted in the military campaign style, banded with brass and featuring brass caps on the corners, along with a shield-shaped cartouche and matching key escutcheon.

The hinged lid opens to reveal a fitted interior, adorned with black leather embossed and gilded in an ornate Art Nouveau scrolling design. Inside, you’ll find two hidden pull-out drawers, the original pen well lid, and two cut-glass inkwells.

The rich patina and attractive scrolling grain of the walnut, combined with the brass accents, give this box a lovely warmth and timeless character.

Origin: England
Date: 1880's

2964 g
15.5 x 23 x 35 cm closed
4.5 - 11 cm tall open
47 x 35 cm open

Very good antique condition. Some surface cracks and small losses to exterior veneer; missing lock mechanism (can be easily replaced); wear to wood inside; crack on one of internal lids; small chip to pen well lid corner.

Pakje is snel verzonden en goed aangekomen. De amethist is veel donkerder dan op de foto, bijna zwart en niet paars.
