Double lines of brass stringing on the lid connect the brass work. The box has the original external working lock key, which inserts into a brass diamond shape escutcheon. The interesting interior boasts multiple compartments (both visible and hidden secret compartments). The lid features a small shaped mirror. The central removable tray has one lid above further compartments along with central pen compartments. There are further lids surrounding the removable compartment. The interior has a secondary internal compartment that has a working lock and key which operates a sliding lid. Much of the interior is constructed for easy removal. The box contains the original letter rack.

Nominal old use marks to the exterior and leading edges of the box and brass inlay but nothing significant considering the age of the item. Excellent colour patination to the timber.
