A charming and beautifully made early 20th-century leather presentation or dressing case, retailed by the prestigious London firm Fortnum & Mason.


Of elegant oval form, the case is finely covered in tan leather with gilt decorative banding to the exterior and retains its original leather-lined interior, stamped FORTNUM & MASON to the base.


Originally intended to house a special personal item or luxury gift, the case today makes a wonderful collector’s piece in its own right.


Height: Approximately 3.5” (9cm)

Width: Approximately 4” (10cm)


Good antique condition, displaying an attractive aged patina with expected signs of use commensurate with age. The leather-lined interior remains clean and the Fortnum & Mason stamp is clearly visible. Please study the photographs carefully as they form an important part of the description.
