Art Deco Inlaid Solid Oak Box Ideal For Documents/ Collections - Lock & Key

This is a lovely Art Deco box which is made from solid oak with nicely carved detail all around and great stylised feet..... a shape that is so iconic of the era, dating to around the 1920s/1930s. It has an inlaid brass cartouche to the centre of the lid which is unused so could be engraved to personalise the box should you wish. This is a very good quality box which comes with a good working lock and key which functions well and locks and unlocks the box easily. The lid is a good fit with strong disappearing hinges that are safe and secure and opens up to a beautiful interior that has been relined with a good quality contrasting materials (not baize or felt). please note that due to the lighting the material in the lid looks darker but please rest assured it does match perfectly. It is ideal for the storage of documents, to house a collection, for pistol storage/ display or jewellery but quite a multi functional box to use for whatever suits your own purpose which is a very useful size with plenty of interior space that will accomodate size a4 paper. it is such a nice period box to have on display that would look great in a contemporary setting. It is in a very good condition for its age with fair wear and tear plus commensurate markings and the wood having a fantastic grain, colour and finish which gives it great character. though please also study the photographs for condition as they help to form part of the description.
