believe this rather beautifully finished and crafted small antique wooden box probably once held small sharpening stone, though it doesn't have any oil or water stains to back this up, but it does have small grease proof paper lining folded inside.It measures just about 12.5cm in length, 7.5cm wide, and 3.25cm deep, the depth being the lid and base half and half.I don't have clue what the wood is, though it is finished beautifully with an orange varnish, that shows the grain with small straight red flecks.Internally the wood looks natural, paler in colour, but the darker flecks are still evident.It is made with very high quality of dove-tail joints.The condition is good, but the inner trim that holds the lid in place is broken so the lid sits loosely and unevenly, but should be easy to repair.Otherwise lovely little box.Noteto buyers:Dueto the number of items have will be sadly shortening mydescriptions, though making sure any relevant information isincluded.WhenListing items try to be as accurate as possible in my descriptions.Thatsaid, it may be that have missed something that is of validimportance.Ifthis is the case, please get in touch as soon as possible, so as torectify the issue in timely  and mutually satisfactory manner.Pleasedo not use feedback for this, but send message, and you will beanswered as soon as possible.Refundswill be given when the error is mine.Thissaid, please read descriptions carefully before bidding.Ifthe item fails to reach you, or is damaged in transit, have proofsof postage for all items, and will willingly assist any buyer, andeven refund if deem it necessary.Allitems are packed well, and hopefully no damage occurs.Thankyou for your time.
