A Very Good Quality Late 17th Century William & Mary Period Laburnum Oyster Veneered Lace Box, With Very Attractive Geometrically Strung Decoration To Hinged Lid, Enclosing Recently Relined Red Velvet Interior.
The wonderfully figured laburnum oyster veneers are particularly attractive, complemented by the intricate concentric circular stringing to the lid and the bold moulded edges.

It also retains a working lock and key.
Originally intended for the storage of valuable lace and other delicate textiles, these boxes were both practical and decorative household objects during the late 17th century.
