AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A superb example of Edwardian craftsmanship, this golden oak stationery cabinet features a sophisticated and fully functional tambour (slatted) sliding door. Measuring 32.5cm high, the cabinet opens to reveal a beautifully tiered interior designed for the organised correspondent.

The cabinet remains complete with its original glass inkwell and a matched wooden paper knife. The oak retains a rich, warm patina and the tambour mechanism operates with period precision. This is not merely a decorative piece, but a functional desk accessory that brings the elegance of the early 20th-century study into the modern home.

Condition Report:
Excellent antique condition. The oak has been well-preserved with a deep, honey-coloured finish. The tambour slats are intact and glide smoothly.

The box measures 23.1 x 32.5 x 29cm approximately 9" x 13" x 11".
