The top and bottom interior has contemporary blue marble paper inserts. Original brass hinges and lock, though there is no key. Condition commensurate with age and use. Scratches in the pine wood, abrasions on the black metal strapping, and scratches on the brass monogrammed plaque. Repairs have been made to the top including replacing black tacks that were missing.
