Lot 26
A Georgian inlaid mahogany knife box with hinged lid 9" £100-150

The lot does have its original interior. Overall the order is very good but there is some cracking and lifting of the veneer. There is some cracking/lifting to the top back of the lid, there is a slight crack above the keyhole and around the handle on the lid. The back of the lid is cracked along its length and there are some small splits running down the sides as a result. There is not veneer actually missing and no major damage.
