A superb quality mahogany gun case dating from the 19th Century. It has brass corners, brass escutcheon, brass sliding locks and engraved brass plaque which reads "George Gore Esq're. Royal Marines".
Inside, the case is sectioned and lined with green felt. This is worn in places and has fded over the years but overall it displays well.
It is in excellent condition for its age and has been well looked after. There are signs of age and use and it has developed a wonderful rich patina. There are surface marks and light knocks and a small piece missing from the underside (see photo) but no splits or major damages.
