Victorian Oak Dome-Top Tambour Desk Stationery Box with Perpetual Calendar

£365.00

English quarter-sawn oak desktop stationery cabinet (circa 1895–1910). Comes with Key

Features a curved tambour roll-top shutter linked to the lower base drawer, which slides back smoothly when the drawer is pulled out.

Inside is a tiered letter and correspondence rack beneath a built-in perpetual calendar with three shaped viewing apertures for the day, date, and month, adjusted via six small turned wooden pegs along the top rail.

The lower drawer is fitted with a central lidded pen tray, small storage wells, a square glass inkwell with a brass cap, and its original locking key, finished externally with pierced Rococo-style brass drop handles on the front and sides.

Displays a rich, warm golden-oak patina with honest surface scratches, light edge wear, and age-related character.
