Antique Writing Boxes

Embrace the lost art of letter writing, real ink on paper - adding the personal human touch, that puts a text or email in the shade. Dating from the 17th to early 20th century, these antique writing boxes were used to store writing instruments and paper, featuring compartments for ink bottles, pens, and sealing wax and sometimes even a secret compartment! Made from materials such as mahogany, rosewood, and brass, these were commonly used for travel by professionals and scholars. A fabulous gift perfect for writers and collectors bringing sophistication to any study.
