Description

This Georgian mahogany knife box, circa 1790, is a good quality decorative piece with a serpentine front and shell patera inlay to the hinged lid. Unusually, it retains its original drop-in interior, while further inlay inside the lid features a star and strung border. A brass key plate fronts the box, though the lock is no longer present. With minor surface marks, restoration to stringing losses and a small loss around the lock area, it has been hand re-polished to a rich colour.
