Antique leather covered stationary box. With original key and inner tray. 1920’s.
Stamped PAPETERIE ANGLAISE ANVERS.
Papeterie Anglaise was established in 1872, more than 150 years ago. A stationary shop of some note in Belgium.
You may wonder why the name “La Papeterie Anglaise” was chosen. It is simply because when the shop opened, it did so in the building that used to house the British consulate.
Since those distant days, La Papeterie Anglaise has survived two world wars and is still open in Brussels.
Leather in very good condition, some bleaching to green colour with some surface marks.
