A beautiful burr walnut stationery cabinet dating from the late 19th / early 20th Century. It has a lovely warm patina and a sloped front with brass escutcheon. It is a particularly large example and excellent quality.
The doors opens out to reveal a series of racks for holding papers and letters. Above this is a perpetual calendar with paper days, numbers and months. There is also a pen tray and a glass inkwell and below this there is a large drawer that is released by pushing a brass button above the calendar.
It is in good condition and although it has been used it has been well looked after over the years. There are a few small knocks and marks around the outside, general signs of age and use but nothing detrimental. The one door has warped slightly with age but it hasn't really affected the box and it comes with its original working key. It has been lightly cleaned and polished and is ready for use.
