Description
This beautifully crafted antique Tunbridge-style Walnut Box features inlaid bands and a hexagonal shaped Mother of Pearl escutcheon and initial plaque. The interior is lined with red velvet adorned with an embroidered Daisy and two Bumble Bees.
The size of this antique box makes it quite a rarity. We have never seen or handled a box of this size, and in the Tunbridge style, so we embellished it in-house with our own embroidered design onto it to add even more cuteness.
As many of these type of boxes were very popular in the late 19th century, it may have even been a salesman’s sample.
With this little antique box, you will find an elegant tasselled key that operates a fully functional lock.
We offer a Bespoke Personalisation Service, giving these wonderful pieces an individual detail and personal touch. We can cater to whatever requirements you may have, please get in touch to enquire.
With every purchase from Mark Goodger Antiques, you will receive our latest catalogue, a Certificate of Authenticity, detailed care instructions for your chosen piece and an independent invoice (for insurance purposes) will be enclosed.
