A beautifully preserved 19th-century flame mahogany writing slope, showcasing the rich swirling grain and deep, honeyed tones typical of fine period craftsmanship.

This stunning piece opens to reveal a classic writing surface with original black leather insert, gold-tooled for elegance, and lined with exquisite hand-marbled paper beneath the lid.

Beneath the writing surface lies a pair of hidden compartments, ideal for tucking away private correspondence or keepsakes—accessed by removing the inkwell tray and lifting the concealed wooden slats.

A lovely mother-of-pearl escutcheon sits to the front, and the slope comes complete with a key.

This is not just a functional writing slope but a statement piece for collectors, writers, or anyone drawn to historical refinement.
