Antique Victorian Mother of Pearl Paper Mache Writing Slope Box dated 1861. In decent condition for something over 120 years old. The key is missing. ... moreThe slope is not fully connected anymore. There is so cracking and discoloration so please look at pictures. But despite some condition issues this is a gorgeous box. Made even more special with the inscription “From Jane (writing I can’t decipher) November 2nd 1861”Found in a flea market in America so I wonder if this box held correspondence from the Civil War. Perhaps that was the reason for this gift?Clearly this person met a lot to Jane because this is a wonderful present both then and now.

Antique Mahogany Table Top Writing/Slope Lap Desk Mid 1800's Large With Key
This beautiful mahogany sloped lap desk was purchased at an estate sale recently. It has been dated back to mid 19th century. When opened. It features 3- bird's eye maple veneered drawers. The middle drawer is actually a false face. With a hidden drawer behind it that slides out to the side. It does come with a workable key, and the lock appears to be the right period. However, I am not completely sure. As I stated in description. It looks to have been restored at one time. It is fairly large, measuring 21" L x 19" W x 11" H, and weighs about 17 lbs. If you have any questions. Just ask!

Antique English Brass Bound Coromandel Writing Slope / Lap Desk c1860
Antique English Brass Bound Coromandel Writing Slope/ Lap Desk c1860 A handsome military or campaign style writing slope.
