Charming Victorian Child's Six-Puzzle Box
$695. |
|
|
Although
lovingly played with, this antique box retains its original set of Victorian
era wood block puzzles, each of six sides having a different illustration to
solve and arrange in order. The theme is children together and at
play and in all, there are six puzzles.
|
|
While the six-sided blocks
with paper illustrations are in good condition, the box itself has
lost some of the wood frame that guides the sliding wood cover and two of
the blocks have holes punched through just one image side.. The
sliding lid
can be put into place with some slight maneuvering. The underside of
the wood lid is covered in the original light purple paper, as is the
underside of the storage box. There is some moisture staining to the
paper on the
bottom of the box and the whole piece measures 13 1/2" x 10"
x 2 1/2" .

Papeterie for the Traveling French Fashion
SOLD |
|
|
|
Victorian
life, with its mind on manners and propriety, brough about the need for
many tools of etiquette, from skirt lifters and grape scissors, to the
practice of hand-written notes for an endless list of thoughts, messages
and thank-you's. Since writing was as common as walking back then, a much
needed accessory was a miniature writing desk that could be moved around
the home or taken on travels, so to always have writing necessities handy.
|
|
This convenient mini-desk with
compartments was stocked with stationery, note paper and envelopes, possibly
a calendar and postcards, maybe a photo of a loved one, and of course a pen,
letter opener and other penmanship tools. This one, which has a pivoting lid
that drops to reveal all the goodies inside, is covered in red fabric, and
the words “Papeterie, A MA POUPEE” printed in gold letterring on the front.
It has a metal latch and even the top surface pivots up to expose the
multi-compartments. The red fabric has a moisture spot on the top side but
overall is in excellent condition. It measures 4 1/2” wide, 3” tall, and 2”
deep, perfect size for your courteous fashion lady.
