Description:
Loewe house philatelist case, with gold imprint "Loewe Madrid – Barcelona" inside the lid and on the edge. Its mark and style precede the 1970 logo, dating to the 1950s or early 1960s.

We have not located any similar piece on the market: neither on specialist portals nor among antique dealers have we found another Loewe philatelic case with this equipment. An uncommon opportunity for collectors.

Exterior: cognac-grained leather with a brass plaque bearing an "M". Interior: red leather with peach moiré lining and green velvet compartments. Hardware is brass and it has a lock with its original key. The lid features a gilt postal motif with a Spanish 5 cts Calderón de la Barca stamp.

It retains its original equipment:

	•	Philos odontometer, with scale from 7 to 16½.
	•	Tweezers.
	•	Black tray for watermarks.
	•	Two glass jars with lids.
	•	Two leather wallets with snap closures.
	•	A hidden drawer with fixed stops.

A uncommon piece that appeals to both Loewe collectors and philatelists.

Condition: good overall for its age. There are light signs of wear on the leather and hardware.

Descripción:
Estuche de filatelista de la casa Loewe, con la firma en oro "Loewe Madrid – Barcelona" en el interior de la tapa y en el borde. Por su marca y su estilo, es anterior al anagrama de 1970 y se puede datar hacia los años 50 o primeros 60.

No hemos localizado en el mercado ninguna pieza similar: ni en portales especializados ni en anticuarios hemos encontrado otro estuche filatélico de Loewe con este equipamiento. Una oportunidad poco habitual para coleccionistas.

Está forrado por fuera en cuero granulado color coñac, con una placa de latón con una "M". El interior es de cuero rojo con forro de moaré color melocotón y compartimentos de terciopelo verde. Los herrajes son de latón y tiene cerradura con su llave original. La tapa lleva un motivo postal dorado con un sello español de 5 cts de Calderón de la Barca.

Conserva su equipo original:

	•	Odontómetro Philos, con escala de 7 a 16½.
	•	Pinzas.
	•	Bandeja negra para filigranas.
	•	Dos botes de cristal con tapa.
	•	Dos carteras de cuero con automáticos.
	•	Un cajón oculto con charnelas fijasellos.

Una pieza poco habitual, que une el interés de los coleccionistas de Loewe con el de los de filatelia.

Estado: buen estado general para su edad. Hay ligeras marcas de uso en el cuero y en los herrajes.
