Asprey, London: a time warp piece in the form of a massive Victorian crocodile-hide dispatch box or case, the top of the box with a recessed brass handle and embossed monogram with coronet, the Chubb patented lock with original key present. The interior, also lined with crocodile and the lid with a grid of crocodile bandings for small notes and memoranda and stamped ASPREY LONDON.
The piece is in such pristine condition due to it being cased in a hard leather cover, and rarely – if ever – used.
