This handsome old slope has lovely Birds Eye walnut veneers complimented with inlaid brass stringing and ornate brass cartouche and escutcheon. Stands well. A green felt is fitted to the base. Slope opens on brass strap hinges with brass slope slope catches and a brass lock but no key. There is a lidded pen tray, stamp slope and space for an ink well. The slope boards, which are covered in a green faux leather, lift to reveal storage areas for correspondence etc. In the top area are secret drawers which are accessed by lifting the partition between the stamp slope and the ink well. A lovely old slope from the Mid Victorian Era measuring 12” x 9” x 6” . Minor ware commensurate to age, thanks for looking
