About the Item
Here we have a quality Victorian (1837-1901) Burr Walnut & Brassbound Campaign Writing Slope with hidden compartments. With a beautiful burr walnut veneer to the exterior and solid mahogany interior. Each surface is inlaid with brass stringing and has brass bound edges with a central square brass plaque to the top.
The writing slope opens to reveal a leather writing surface, small compartments and an inkwell. The writing slopes can be opened on both the top end and bottom end, both revealing storage compartments.
This writing slope has 3 hidden drawers, to reveal these gently pull on the far right the wooden dividers upwards and this triggers a a long wooden panel to pop open and reveals the 3 hidden wooden drawers covering the width of the box.
What is a writing slope?
A writing slope is a portable, often wooden, surface with a slanted top, designed for writing. It's essentially a small, angled desk that can be used on a lap, or set on a table or desk. Writing slopes are often used to improve posture and handwriting by encouraging a more upright and ergonomic writing position
