SB525:
A rare early Regency shaped fully fitted brass inlaid
figured rosewood sewing box retaining its carved and turned ivory spools and
other sewing tools. The form is typical of the early Regency: perfectly
proportioned drawing its inspiration from ancient architectural structures. It
has turned gadrooning drop ring handles and feet. The box retains its
original fully fitted tray covered in yellow paper with gold embossed
supplementary lids. Circa 1815.
