SB122: A rosewood veneered box, inlaid with mother of pearl and white metal in a stylized pattern, which forms a fine foliated design in reverse having a lift out tray, still covered with its original printed pink paper with divisions for sewing. The workmanship is of high standard; for example, the box is edged with a rounded piece of wood which finishes it elegantly and also protects it. Circa 1835
