Stunning early 19th century rosewood and walnut veneered sewing box of a great design. All 4 sides and the top are veneered in a segmented star pattern design as is the inside of the lid also. Nicely moulded base with original bun feet. Interior is all original with lift out mahogany tray. Although this has a slightly continental look about it I think it is English judging by the lock.
The box is in very good condition with no damage at all. Some of the divisions are missing from the internal tray but these could easily be made if required.
The box is a lovely mellow colour with good patination and a waxed finish.
