Insurance: $7.45 USD

This is a gorgeous English Victorian rosewood box with key. The rosewood veneer is in wonderful condition with only a few odd scuffs here and there. The key hole and the top of the box escutcheon are made of brass. The box also has two recessed brass handles on the side. The edge of box was designed with a beautiful carved beading that runs along all of the outside edges.
This Victorian would have been used by a lady for the storage of jewelry or sewing materials. Inside the box there is a lift out tray with several compartments to organize the jewelry or sewing items and this would be for additional storage. Beneath the lid of the box, is a pull-down compartment which may have held special letters or documents . The velvet cover of the compartment would have been used for broaches or pins.
