Writing box veneered in saw cut rosewood veneer inlaid with mother of pearl circa 1840.

This box is of outstanding quality. The beautifully iridescent mother of pearl enlivens the rosewood which in turn provides a complimentary background with its subtle dark sheen.

The design is of stylised flora which refers to the neoclassical tradition of the late 18th and early 19th century

The pattern with its swirling symmetry suggests the moment in aesthetic history when the poise of neoclassicism was injected with the energy of naturalism, without losing control of design or tightness of execution. The flowers and leaves are exquisite.

The stems are incredibly thin as are many of the other elements which form the flowers and leaves. Such work requires skill of the highest calibre and a considerable amount of time. The lines which form the design are very delicate and yet they build up to a pattern of strength and vitality.

It has the original lock which is worn.

There are an original  inkwell.
