Dating from 1825, this antique jewellery box (although unsigned) was manufactured and retailed by one of the finest English cabinet makers, David Edwards. It is veneered and cross-banded with kingwood, edged in brass and finished with recessed brass side handles and a Bramah lock.
The interior of the box is lined with burgundy Morocco leather and matching velvet. The top leather-bound and velvet-lined jewellery tray, with a removable sub-tray, lifts out to reveal a further leather-bound tray beneath. With both trays removed, a velvet-lined base section becomes accessible.
The inner perimeter of the lid is decorated with gold-tooling on leather.
The Bramah lock comes with its original key.
