Vintage Brass Stamp Box with Ornate Scrollwork Lid – 20th Century

£ 20.00

On offer is a truly exceptional vintage brass stamp box, dating to the early-to-mid 20th century and crafted with ornate detail in solid cast brass. Measuring 5.5 inches wide, this beautifully designed piece once graced a traditional writing desk — and now serves as a decorative treasure that blends charm with function.

With its finely embossed floral and scroll motifs and elegant footed base, this brass box is both a functional collectible and a rich visual accent. The interior features three divided compartments, originally intended for different denominations of stamps, making it a rare survivor of an increasingly lost art: letter writing.

Whether displayed as a conversation-starting accent on a writing desk or used as a jewelry trinket box or keepsake holder, this piece carries both warmth and heritage — a tactile link to a more refined past.
