Late 18th Century, ... morelarge, brass bound mahogany lap desk/writing slope. As shown by the brass plate in the second picture. T his splended slope has some fantastic( military) h istory. It was owned by a Captain J Aveling of the 77th Regiment who died in Glasgow in 1822. He served 22 years in that reg iment. Notice that the brass plate notes the name as Mr Aveling not Captain Aveling that leads one to beleive that this slope/chest was crafted for. Or crafted by Mr Aveling before he was made a Captain of the 77th R egiment. The link below has some information on Captain Aveling: http:books.google.co.kr/books?id=3CwoAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA181&lpg=PA181&dq=mr+j+aveling+77th+regiment&source=bl&ots=JpCOyOJl4b&sig=wc_jrzV9cCbRorFZFkB7JwiENR4&hl=en&sa=X&ei=6PEtUd7OKO2SiQfz5IGICQ&ved=0CC0Q6AEwAA#v=onepage&q=mr%20j%20aveling%2077th%20regiment&f=false This is a t ank of a slope. Very solid, very well crafte d and heavy and strong. The wood has a good patina and has a strong grain. The brass sits flush and has a well aged tarnish to it. The handles are strong and attached. The wood has been carefully cleaned and lightly polished so the strong. Aged mahogan y grain as always with this beautiful. Warm. Rich wood looks phenomenal especially against the brass banding. In good. Authentic condition with obvious markings commensurate with age.

ANTIQUE WRITING DESK (SLOPE) FROM ENGLAND CIRCA 1900
This is a beautifully handcrafted Antique English Writing Slope or Travel Desk. It measures 16" by 9" by 4 1/2" The exotic wood veneer(possibly mahogany) has a very dramatic and variable grain that ranges from amber to black. The exquisite top features a radiant Mother of Pearl Cartouche( 2" by 1" with no engravings or markings) It has eight Mother of Pearl Discs that are positioned near the corners. The discs are connected by pewter'stringing lines' to form two rectangles on the top. I believe that the two shortest pewter'stringing lines' on the ends of the inner rectangle may be replacement pieces. There are also four Mother of Pearl discs on the front of the box. Connected by pewter'stringing lines' These also form a rectangle. The escutcheon has an inlay that is a bone color. But does not ... moreappear to be Mother of Pearl. The top opens to reveal a green velvet fabric-covered writing slope which appears to be original. There are five separate compartments for ink wells. Nibs, wax, stamps etc. There is also a removable concave pen tray with storage space beneath it. The green velvet-covered'top partition' pulls down with a black grosgrain tab to expose a storage compartment. The storage compartment measures 14 1/4" by 7 1/4" For stationary. The green velvet-covered'bottom partition' pulls open with a black grosgrain tab to expose a storage compartment. This storage compartment measures 14 1/4" by 5" For letters. The hinges and fittings are brass and there is a flush brass handle on each end of the box. There is a small chip in the veneer on the left front corner(photo#3) There is a 1/2" segment of the pewter'stringing line' that is missing in the same area. There are some cracks in the veneer on the top. The left side of the top and the front. There are cracks in the interior linings of the box.

ca1800 Federal Period Writing Slope/Lap Desk
I do not know much about it. I have had it on my desk for many years and have enjoyed it. If you do have questions please ask. One of the glass inkwells does have a broken rim but the top does sit on it ok. The lock does work but the only key i have for it is bent. You can always replace the key but it DOES work as it is. It will be professoinally packed at The UPS store and will ship anywhere. Thanks. Rob.
Antique Slope Portable Writing Lap Desk dated inside 1898
Up for auction is this lovely antique slope lap desk. It is not as fancy as some I've seen but this one has writings on one of the boards and a blue ink bottle. There is a date handwritten inside the box of May 11. 1898. There are 11 different names written inside the box along with where they came from. Most of the names list a town in Maine, one list Massachusetts and the other New Hampshire. It's so interesting and full of history! This lap desk has a blue felt writing surface and comes with a small blue ink bottle. This was an Maine estate sale buy. The box measures 11" x7-1/2" and 3-3/4 inches tall. What a little treasure! This is a very old item. It is not mint. The wooden box is sound, no cracks or breaks. The blue felt in side has some ink staining and wear spots. The wooden panels have writing on them. There is ... moresome small ink staining throughout the box. There is a lock on the box, it is unlocked with out a key. The outside of the box has a nice decorative carving and there are some scratches on the box but nothing that would take away from it's beauty. It has normal wear for the age. Any questions? Please ask, I am more than happy to help you! Good luck, this item should go to someone who could appreciate the history of this little box! Happy Bidding!

The slope folds out and has a leather surface, this may have been replaced at some point. The hinges on the side also don't look original and were probably replaced. You can tell around the hinges where the wood failed and they replaced the hinges. The top flips up too to allow access to the slots for papers and envelopes that is in the back. Behind the writing slope is a wider area to hold other things. We've tried to show how the whole thing works in the first five pictures. The top has a lock but it doesn't ... morehave a key.

Antique Victorian Mahogany & Brass Banded Writing Slope Box for Restoration
Antique Victorian Mahogany& Brass Banded Writing Slope Box for Restoration This is an antique writing slope in well figured Mahogany veneer inlaid with brass bands and with brass edgings to the top and front. I'd date it to between about 1840 and 1880. It has original brass plate in the lid and escutcheon- the lock is complete. Has a key, and it works. Inside the boards are lacking, but there are two inkwells( minus lids, but still with the remnants of blue and black ink) All the brass edgings and bandings are intact. It was a really good quality item- with some work it could be again. Or it is a fantastic source of spare veneers, lock, hinges etc. etc. to repair other similar boxes. Size: box is 12 x 9 x 4 1/2 inches(30 x 23 x 11.5 cm) Weight: 1419 grammes Condition: Faults are- one broken hinge( repairable if you can braze. As both ... moreparts are present and it is not seized up) missing internal boards, Split to the top, split to the base and the base is loose- one very small piece of veneer missing at the side. Start Price reflects the value of the box as scrap materials- the working lock and key alone are worth £15 or more if removed and sold separately on Ebay.

Antique 19th C. Walnut Writing Lap Desk Slope Box Brass Inlay Scribe Wood
Hi. You are bidding on a large(a little under 9 inches by 14 inches by 5 inches) writing box. I do not usually sell these. And I do not know much about them, so I hope I am describing it correctly. It is walnut with brass inlays. It does not have a key but has a keyhole. It opens easily and I think it is in pretty good condition for age. I took the pictures with flash, but there is one picture without flash to show you how it might look in different light. It is definitely antique! It has not been refinished. It is in great condition for age. Thank you. g=0.RcmdId ViewItemDescV4,RlogId p4%60bo7%60jtb9%3Fuk.rp*60%600%3Eg%3D0-13dd9c8be26-0x104-

Please look on your local eBay for the best shipping rates. Please pay promptly. We can accept payment by Paypal or Bank Transfer. If you would prefer a framed item sent Unframed please let us know- there can often be substantial savings on delivery charges. 95% of framed pictures(except the very small ones) are now being sent out in custom made cartons. These are extremely sturdy telescopic cartons that provide a level of protection virtually as good as a wooden crate. These are far superior to recycled cartons which usually have been weakened by prior use. The cost for each of these cartons is exactly £4.00 which must be passed ... moreon to the buyer. Since we have been using these cartons. There have been essentially no reports of damage in transit. From time to time we do stumble across a previously used carton which is as good as ours, and on occasions we do use them. For overseas shipments we often use alternative packing means to keep the weight under 2kg. Usually this means many layers of bubble wrap(which is very light) and very little cardboard. Full insurance is included in the postage and packing charge. No carrier will insure against damage to artwork or antiques so we provide this insurance ourselves. There is a small amount included in the shipping charge for this. Glass will be removed from all overseas shipments. Despite best packing efforts. The carriers manage to break larger pieces of glass with frustrating regularity. When we do ship small pictures with glass, we will often tape the glass with masking tape. If the glass seems particularly vulnerable, we will re-arrange the picture so the the backing board is between the glass and the painting, so that even if the glass breaks it will be unlikely to damage the painting. In this case it will be necessary to put the painting back in the proper
