An antique writing slope, brass bound walnut also including a dip pen, inkwell and an assortment of rare antique documents. The box opens to reveal the gilt edged leather writing slope, the pen tray includes a dip pen, with two recesses at both ends. The key is not original and does not work the lock but included for decorative effect. The secret compartment is accessed by pulling up the left hand divider, it releases the panel below to access the three drawers.
This is a really beautiful and substantial box, an elegant functional item which is decorative too, it is in good functional condition, with beautiful patination and a brass cartouche engraved "OFD" in a copperplate hand.
The box has a crack across the top mirrored in the base both of which have been repaired but are still visible, the writing surfaces have been reattached, one of the brass sliders in the securing locks for the top writing surface is missing, the other is intact, the strip in the centre of the writing slope is a later addition, there is a small loss to the veneer at the base on one side.
The box measures 45 x 18 x 25.5cm (17.71" x 7.08" x 10") w x h x d.
The documents included with the box are all original and include;
A copy of The Times newspaper dated `November 28th 1840.
An addressed envelope with Penny Red stamp and wax seal dated April 11th 1868.
A prestamped card dated January 22nd 1878,
A handwritten envelope dated April 12th 1834.
A handwritten invoice dated November 21st 1822.
Three 19th century press clippings for medical products.
An unused "Penny Postage Jubilee" postcard dated 1890.
A cheque dated 1906.
A press advertisement for tea.
An Ordnance Survey map of the Parish of Merrington in County Durham.
A multi page handwritten document concerning the Swainsmoor Estate written in 1812.
