Antique Burr Walnut Writing Box by Betjemann with Rare Secret Compartment
Located in Northampton, GB
Retailed by Charles Henry, Manchester
From our Writing Box collection, we are delighted to offer this English Burr Walnut Writing Box by Betjemann. The Writing box of slim rectangular shape with a slightly sloped lid is veneered in exquisite Burr Walnut to the exterior with beautifully shaped brass mounts. The escutcheon sits at the centre of the writing box on a brass mount which also features three monogrammed letters C F E. When opened the box reveals a royal blue velvet writing slope with a gold tooled border framed by an embossed greek key style border. The box is faced in exotic Coromandel wood which is a rare addition to this style of Writing Box. Above the writing slope, there is a partitioned section lined in Satinwood with two glass inkwells and a pen tray with further storage.
The secret spring-loaded stationary drawer features a solid Satinwood base complete with small yet elegant dovetail joints, activated by pressing down on the button on the brass mounted plate reading 'Betjemann Patent'. The inside of the writing slope lid bears the retailer plaque 'Charles Henry Manchester.' The box also features the original owner's monogram with the letters "C F E" in multiple locations.
The Writing Box comes complete with a working lock and tasselled key.

Antique French 19th Century Jewelry Box Flap Door Miniature Wood Cabinet
Located in Firenze, IT
This beautiful French late 19th century chest of drawers in black ebonized wood and cherrywood reproduces with perfect proportions in scale a miniature cabinet with three drawers and an upper flap door that opens to reveal a white marble top and an oval mirror inside, nice hand carved band on top with geometrical pattern and molded base.
The black lacquered wood creates a wonderful contrast with the beautiful honey-colored wood grain. Despite its convenient size, extremely detailed, this chest of drawers is equipped with a white Carrara marble top and a small mirror that make it even more special and useful.
The model of a piece of furniture was originally created by cabinet makers to show their skills to the customer and to present the sample of the furniture which would then have been produced on a larger scale. These commode miniatures, along with other specimens, were displayed in the craftsman's workshop to serve as examples to aid the potential client in making a selection. Some also think that these little chests were used as doll and puppets...

Stunning Mid 1800s Burl Walnut & Brass Desktop / Letters Box Working Lock & Key
Located in Lisse, NL
Top quality and excellent condition antique box for the connoisseurs.
Over the years we have had the pleasure of owning and selling some truly beautiful antique boxes and this handcrafted box is right up there with the best. The burl walnut that was used to create the beautiful patterns on the exterior of this box has the most amazing patina. However, what makes this majestic box really stand out, are its striking brass ornaments, the unique lock plate and a variety of other (hand engraved) brass decorations. As you can see this one of a kind box even comes with its original and equally beautiful brass lock and its original 1800s key. The perfectly turning lock (another sign of excellence) works brilliantly as well and have you also noticed the numerous engravings in the stunning brass ornaments?
