Description: A piece of early Sorrento Ware, this stamp box has an inlaid design on the lid of two children dancing barefoot. Inside it is divided into 2 equal, sloping compartments for postage stamps. The lid has two small metal hinges with original screws. It measures 6cm x 6cm x 2.5cm high. The box is in very good condition with any wear in keeping with age and use; there is a historic repair to the front edge, but is free of splits and there is no loss to the inlay. Please scroll through all the photos as they form part of the description. Thank you for viewing my listing. The sun kept coming and going the day that I was taking the photos; hence the colour difference in the wood.
