Tunbridge micro mosaic Battle Abbey gatehouse jewellery box 154x231x75mm
Tunbridge micro mosaic Battle Abbey gatehouse jewellery box
Dimensions: 154x231x75mm. approx 1mm x 1mm tesserae
Restoration: None by us yet. Priced as found. Pretty good condition but benefits from full restoration available as commission. Has a lock but no key.
NB. if we replace missing tesserae/inlays/veneer, we do so with real wood tesserae from our vast stocks of Tunbridge micro mosaic spares and veneer. We never use wax/paste fillers or paint faux inlays like some of the less scrupulous restorers we have come across.
Origin: Tunbridge, UK mid to late 19th century
Extras(please contact the office): Full restoration exterior with satin or matt respray and polish with hardwearing uv and oxidising resistant lacquer to help preserve colours. Interior re-purposing for lift out tray(s) with or without fabric lining. New key or new lock and new key.
