Period : William IV - Victoria
Origin : Tunbridge Wells; England
Decoration : to the lid - a small panel of isometric cubes featuring palmeira, coromandel, birds-eye maple and other veneers bounded with geometric miniature mosaic, the canted edges of the lid featuring the same, with banded keyline stringing to both. A wider mosaic band to all four sides of the rosewood body, again with keyline borders; a diamond shaped, flush fitted bone escutcheon around the keyhole; angles sides to the base, the whole sitting on four flattened bun feet; internally, a lift-out tray seated on ledged edges over the main void; the tray has sixteen compartments (with one divider missing, so should have seventeen); two of these have lift out lids with padded pin cushions affixed, one with a stitched tool-band; one box-based pin cushion, and a shaped thimble-holder; includes two small yarn cards; original rouched satin lining to the inside of the lid; replacement paper to the base; working lock and key

Note : The use of a variety of very small, very finely grained tesserae to make up the mosaics is a signature of work produced by Humphrey Burrows, as noted by Margaret Gill and Brian Austen in their respective books.
