Antique Victorian Desktop Oak Stationery Cabinet Box Letter Rack Tidy
A lovely oak stationery cabinet dating from the late 19th / early 20th Century. It is a particularly large example and excellent quality. It has a sloped front with a brass escutcheon. The doors opens out to reveal a series of racks for holding papers and letters. Above this is a section which we believe would be for holding a pocket watch.
There are also labels "accounts, receipts, answered, unanswered". There is also a pen tray and below this there is a large drawer with fitted sections that is released by lifting a brass rod. There is a maker's label inside for. "Parkins & Gotto 24 & 25 Oxford Street". 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. It does not come with a key.
It has been lightly cleaned and polished and is ready for use. The best description comes from the photos so please look at them all carefully and if you have any questions at all please ask.
