Antique Victorian Mahogany Stationary Box w. Perpetual Calendar, Bramah Improved
Located in Lisse, NL
Stylish and mint condition, antique desk or table piece. This rare and beautifully crafted Victorian luxury letter box is a true testament to 19th-century craftsmanship and ingenuity. Made from rich, solid wood with a deep, warm patina, it blends functional design with timeless elegance. More than just a storage piece, this is a refined system for organizing correspondence, complete with a built-in perpetual calendar and integrated writing panel. Behind the sleek double doors—one of which locks with its key—you’ll find a cleverly designed interior fitted with multiple compartments for letters, documents, and notes. At the top is a charming perpetual calendar with original sliders displaying the day, date, and month—an eye-catching and practical feature. What truly sets this piece apart are the two fold-out panels inside each door. One features a removable writing surface, ideal for jotting down notes with a pencil or crayon. The opposite panel includes straps for securing cards or memos. In addition, there are hidden drawers and compartments for pens, stamps, or other stationery, making this a uniquely functional piece for both historical display and modern-day use. The box features two front doors—one with its original Bramah lock, marked “Bramah Improved”, a renowned name in high-security locks since the 18th century.—perhaps a postmaster, a ship's purser, or a gentleman's estate office. So, if you would rather sit down and write someone a real letter or postcard then, in our view, you will be the right custodian for this stylish and beautifully made antique. Mind you, our fair price for this great value for money antique even includes perfect packing and also worldwide delivery from our store to your door in just 4 days.
