Georgian Military Campaign Writing Slope
Georgian Military Campaign Writing Slope, brass bound all around the edges and with brass inlay decoration to the front. There are also brass cartouches to the front and the top, both of which are blank. When open this writing box can be used as a reading slope as there is a brass angle-stay on the inside edge which keeps the box in an open reading position. Inside there are compartments for pens and ink bottles, two large compartments, one of which is lockable and the key is present, plus a secret compartment with 3 small drawers. The writing surface is leather lined.
The locking plate at the front is signed “Turners Patent”. The Turner Family of Locksmiths from Wolverhampton were of considerable importance having first patented their locks in 1798.
Circa. 1800
H: 8”, 20cms, W: 20”, 51cms, D: 10.5”, 27cms.
