Antique English Mahogany Box with Mother-of-Pearl Inlay | 19th Century | 10”
A handsome antique English box dating to the 19th century, beautifully constructed in warm-toned mahogany with fine dark line inlay and delicate mother-of-pearl details.
The rectangular case has a wonderfully understated Georgian-to-Regency character, with a small inset cartouche to the lid and matching mother-of-pearl escutcheon surrounding the original keyhole. The wood has developed a rich, mellow patina with visible grain and age-related character throughout.
Opening the hinged lid reveals an older red-lined interior. The box would originally have contained fitted compartments or removable trays, which are no longer present, leaving a spacious open interior that makes it wonderfully practical for modern use. The underside is finished with an aged leather base.
The lock remains present, although the original key is no longer included.
Dimensions:
Approximately 10” W × 6.5” D × 4” H
Origin: England
Date: 19th century
Materials: Mahogany, mother-of-pearl inlay, leather and fabric
Condition:
Beautiful antique condition with expected wear and patina consistent with age. The original fitted interior has been removed and the key is not present. Interior fabric shows age-related wear and losses, as photographed.
A beautifully understated English antique that would be equally at home on a library table, desk, dresser, or coffee table—perfect for storing letters, jewelry, keepsakes, or other small treasures.
