MTS ANTIQUE JEWELLERY BOXES
WONDERFUL 19C ROSEWOOD ANTIQUE JEWELLERY BOX - FAB INTERIOR
For
sale is a WONDERFUL 19c figured veneered rosewood inlaid antique restored and repolished
jewellery box. Dates approximately 1820/1860.
In
WONDERFUL restored condition. FULLY LOCKS. One small old veneer repair to the back bottom left edge which is nothing, otherwise a terrific box in great restored order. Inlaid with the original pewter stringing to the top and front. Its becoming harder and harder to obtain boxes in this sort of condition. Inlaid with the original mother of pearl central cartouche and later replacement mother of pearl keyhole escutcheon. The side draw is accessed by removing the original solid brass internal rod. The draw runs in and out with ease. It is a really terrific box!!
I’M
PRETTY SURE THAT YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED.
Box
retains the original solid brass lock, original hinges and top catch. Supplied with a silk tassel
and Victorian key that FULLY LOCKS the box. Instruction given once sold.
YOU
ONLY GET THIS TYPE OF QUALITY FROM US.
Comprising a wonderful interior
that boasts a later wooden tray finished to a superb standard that compliments.
This has been relined in expensive velvet
material of the
highest quality, the same as the interior
of the box and the side draw. All the added dividers within the tray and side draw can easily be repositioned
or removed if desired. The tray can hold a few rings in an upright position.
Underneath
the additional tray and beneath the base of the box have also been lined in
velvet to stop any scratches to other surfaces.
A superb box, and would make a
fantastic gift.
We
have been antique dealers and restorers for the past 30 years. We have a wealth
of experience.
Please
bear in mind that we try to give a reasonable account of restoration that's
taken place, and try to highlight major points. The majority of our boxes are
over one hundred years old. They are not new and may have antique marks, tiny
missing pieces slight misalignment or shrinkage imperfections, and will have
shown signs of fatigue. Its all normal for the age of any historic box. We try
to restore to a good order but can not list every single mark. If you are
unsure in any way before purchase please contact us for more information. we
are only to pleased to offer help.
We believe at MTS that the Antique boxes we sell are
as important as the item of jewellery our customers buy.
We take pride in all our restorations, which are unique
and fit in well with today’s taste and style. What better way to store your
valuables than within a unique piece of Victorian or Georgian history. As an
investment for the future, our boxes will never
loose their appeal or charm, and should with care last all our lifetimes and
beyond.
We take a lot of pride and
care in what we do, and have been dealers and restorers for over thirty years.
