Description: This is an impressive Antique Dressing Table Vanity Box with Silver Lidded Scent and Storage Bottles which bear the Silversmiths mark for Frances Douglas, the Assay Office for London and date letter for 1852. The inside back velvet panel has a gold mount and catch, but is unmarked. Behind this panel there’s the manufacturers label of W C Fuller (late Batley) as well as a pull out, stand up mirror, which still intact with just a little surface wear. The Silver lids to the storage pots bear the Silver Hallmarks, the Scent Bottle lids are unmarked but all bear the same motif to the top of the lids and there are some minor surface dings to the oblong pots and a little age-related wear to them. The Silver lidded Scent Bottles still have their stoppers, which is rare to find. As well as the storage pots there’s a pair of unmarked Silver handled Scissors included. The glass bottles are in very good condition with just a tiny flea bit to a couple but no major chips, cracks or restoration. All stoppers come out of the bottles. Inside the box there’s some pull out trays that reveal a satin finished floor and two secret drawers, which are also lined which indicates this was a high-quality piece when manufactured. Please note: There is no key for the lock. Overall, when closed, the box measures approximately 31cm wide, 16cm high and 22.5cm deep, which is in good condition with just a little age-related wear from storage and handling, but nothing major to note. This is truly a superb quality piece.
