Antique leather Writing Slope Parkins&Gotto London Excellent Original Condition

This exquisite Edwardian leather writing slope is a rare antique that beautifully combines function, craftsmanship, and elegance. Dating from circa 1890–1920, the slope is clad in rich, supple leather with a warm patina that reflects its age and character. Its classic design is enhanced by a Bramah lock, a mark of quality and prestige, making it a fine example of period antique writing boxes.

The outer leather covering has been carefully restored, ensuring its durability while retaining its historic charm, while the interior remains in untouched original condition — a rare find that adds to its authenticity. Though the original key is no longer present, this piece more than compensates with its originality and exceptional preservation.

Comparable examples of Edwardian writing slopes in lesser condition often sell for over £1,200 on specialist platforms, making this a particularly attractive opportunity for collectors and enthusiasts.

This antique wooden and leather writing box is not only a practical item of desk furniture but also a captivating collector’s piece that embodies the refinement of the late Victorian and Edwardian eras. Perfect for display, personal use, or as a thoughtful gift for those with an appreciation for historic stationery, writing antiques, or fine period craftsmanship.
