A STUNNING AND RARE ORIGINAL ROSEWOOD VENEERED DRESSING BOX FROM CIRCA 1860 (I FOUND SEVERAL INVITES FROM THE 1860S UNDER THE DRAWER-INCLUDED IN SALE). IT HAS A MOTHER OF PEARL CARTOUCHE AND A KEYHOLE ESCUTCHEON AND I HAVE MATCHED A LOCK TO WORK WITH THE ORIGINAL LOCK. INTERNALLY THERE IS A LIFT OUT TRAY WITH ORIGINAL GLASS SILVER PLATED TOPPED JARS (ONE JAR SMASHED ON BOTTOM BUT ALL OTHERS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION). THE LID HAS A PULL DOWN SECTION WITH ORIGINAL GREEN CRUSHED VELVET AND I HAVE MADE A BOX WOODEN FRAMED MIRROR TO REPLACE THE LOST ORIGINAL. HIDDEN/SECRET DRAWER TO THE SIDE WITH ORIGINAL FITTINGS AND LININGS. IT HAS HAD A KNOCK ON THE BACK OF THE LID AT SOME POINT BUT THIS DOES NOT DETRACT FROM THE OVERALL LOOK OF THE PIECE. IT HAS HAD A LIGHT CLEAN TO REMOVE THE SURFACE DUST, A BEESWAX POLISH AND A LIGHT FRENCH POLISH AND IS READY TO USE. A COUPLE OF MINOR NICKS AND OLD REPAIRS TO THE VENEER BUT OVERALL VERY GOOD CONDITION. GOOD WITH JUST A FEW VERY MINOR MARKS COMMENSURATE WITH AGE AND USE (PLEASE SEE PHOTOS AS THESE FORM PART OF THE DESCRIPTION). LENGTH 30.5CM, HEIGHT 16.5CM, DEPTH 22.5CM.
