About the Item

Beautiful feathered walnut, brass bound, vanity box by the famous makers “Betjemann & Sons” of London. This vanity box has several compartments and the attention to detail is fabulous. The walnut veneer has been enhanced using a feather and ink to paint and intensify the grain. The interior is fitted with eight beautifully engraved sterling silver glass jars by Thomas Whitehouse, 1870. Lifting this tray reveals an assortment of accoutrements and a little button to the back of the box which, when pushed, reveals a sprung loaded jewelry drawer. This box comes with an original key and fully working lock.
