A fine wooden correspondence box covered in black pressed leather, embellished with particularly elegant pierced brass mounts.

The interior is lined with green glazed paper showing signs of use, while the underside is covered with decorative block-printed paper.

A well-proportioned correspondence box.

Dimensions: 30 × 16 × 13 cm.

Condition: Good overall condition, with some marks and signs of use to the leather. The key is not original but operates the lock correctly, opening with a half-turn.
