This is a superb Late Regency brass inlaid rosewood writing slope in fine antique condition and with its original keys still present and working. Brass inlay borders consisting of a scrolling design adorn the top and front, with an elaborate central name plate for H. Fraser 1830 on top and a decorative escutcheon with working key to the front. Brass flush handles are present to the sides. The lid opens on brass hinges to reveal a pen tray, two open compartments for ink bottles (missing) and the original deep magenta velvet covered writing slope. A small key opens the slope to reveal an additional storage area below.

Dimensions: Width 35 x Depth 26 x Height 14 cm
Weight 2.2 kg
