Antique English Cigar Box or Letterbox with Sterling Silver Mounts and Shield

An antique letterbox or cigar box with sterling silver mounts and monogrammed shield. The late Victorian Rosewood box of rectangular form has three compartments that open for letters, stamp and other items. A silver escutcheon on the front completes the box along with the key.
