An elegant shagreen pen box accented with finely engraved silver mounts, showcasing the refined craftsmanship associated with luxury writing accessories of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The textured surface of the shagreen creates a sophisticated contrast with the bright, engraved silver detailing, giving the piece a timeless and distinguished appearance.
The box opens to reveal a fitted interior designed for storing pens and writing instruments, making it both decorative and functional for a desk or study. A discreet additional drawer is incorporated into the design, providing extra storage for small accessories such as nibs, seals, or other writing tools.
Pieces combining shagreen with engraved silver mounts are highly sought after for their craftsmanship and understated elegance. This pen box makes a wonderful addition to a writing desk, library, or collector’s cabinet. Most likely French.
