SOLD
This early 1830's antique jewellery box was manufactured and retailed by one of the finest English cabinet makers, Edwards. It is veneered in beautifully figured Brazilian Rosewood, edged in brass with inlaid brass corner mounts, and finished with recessed brass side handles and a Bramah lock.
The inside of the box is lined and ruched with emerald green velvet, and the interior rims are inlaid with brass stringing. The top leather-bound and velvet-lined jewellery tray, with a removable miniature sub-tray, lifts out to reveal a secondary leather-bound tray below.
The ruched velvet panel drops forward to reveal a concealed leather-bound letter wallet, displaying the embossed, gold-tooled maker's name, 'Edwards, Manufacturer to His Majesty. 21 King St Bloomsbury, London.'
The Bramah lock is fully working and comes with its original engraved, gold-plated Bramah key. ... Read More
