A handsome and unusual brass strongbox with intricate patterned polished bone inlay on the top. The inside with a till, the lid of the till decorated with incised designs. This box could be polished but I prefer the patina of age. Some verdigris spots here and there only add to the allure. No key. Ceylon, (Sri Lanka) circa 1900.
