JB506: Rosewood box with rounded edges, inlaid with
brass to the front and top depicting stylized flora. The
design is controlled in deference to the Georgian neo-classical
tradition but it also embraces the Regency influence of the Royal
cabinet maker George Bullock, who introduced naturalistic elements
to the earlier austere brass designs. The inside of the box
has been relined with hand marbled paper and velvet and
retains its original lift out tray. Circa 1825.
