English Early / Mid Victorian Parquetry Inlaid Walnut Jewelry Box c. 1845-55: $195.00
This optically amazing mid 19th c. English walnut jewelry box features parquetry inlay featuring exotic woods including padauk, satinwood, Macassar wood etc. The base apron is fret cut and the box has bracket feet. The interior is lined in crimson silk with ivory silk bases and a lid interior in marble paper (maybe added later). The parquetry pieces are all almost 1/8\" thick almost like parquetry flooring. The piece has its original finish, hardware and lock (sorry, no key). The box is 11 1/4\" wide x 6 7/8\" tall x 8 3/4\" deep. Aside from an inobtrusive chip in the fretwork apron and a bit of wear on the silk interior, the box is in great original antique condition. Stock Number SA2D-215
