Description

This mid 19th century burr campaign lap desk, circa 1860, is a good quality Victorian writing box in walnut with a stunning burr exterior, beautifully bound in brass inside and out. The original dark blue velvet writing surface splits both ways to reveal storage, with pen tray and compartments above, plus a full width drawer opening with a secret pin lock. Original locks and hinges survive, with only very slight age split to the top and expected surface marks.
