Antique 19th-century campaign writing slope crafted in richly figured burl wood with brass strapwork, corner mounts, decorative escutcheons, and a fitted interior. The hinged case opens to reveal a two-part writing surface lined in purple velvet, a spacious storage well, and several small compartments and drawers for writing implements and supplies. The underside retains its green fabric covering. The box displays surface scratches, finish wear, veneer losses, separation along the case, and several loose or detached interior wooden components requiring restoration. A handsome period writing box with strong decorative appeal and restoration potential. Approx. dimensions (in): 6.75 x 19.75 x 10.
