A fine example of a Victorian coromandel wood ladies jewel/dressing box.

The box is veneered and brass inlaid with brass plate carrying handles. The interior is fitted out with ten silver, London hallmarked for 1849, topped bottles and jars and a manicure set fitted on two blue velvet lined trays. The centre tray lifts out to a blue leather lined storage area and in the under side of the lid is a blue leather lined stationary folder and a dressing mirror.

The makers label is on the inside edge of the folder "B.B. Wells 431 West Strand". In the base of the box is a drawer with a Bramah lock stamped 'V.R', the drawer comes out and has a blue leather cover lid over a blue velvet lined jewellery and ring storage area.

The box is in very good condition with all of the leather and velvet showing only small signs of use. Some of the silver tops have small dents and the mirror silvering is not perfect. (Circa 1849)
