This is a beautifully made English brass postage stamp box, heavy and excellent quality.<p>The box is cast to look like it is made of various twigs etc. just like a birds nest. A pretty little bird crowns the box.<p>The hinged lid lifts to reveal an interior comprising of two sloped compartments made for postage stamps.<p>An interesting piece of history is evident in this little box - the screw on the underside was often used to release the fitted underside and a sovereign would be hidden!<p>A rare example in excellent condition measuring 2" x 1.5" x1.75" tall.
