A lovely example of a late Victorian metal hat box. Original paint inside and out with the outside displaying a typical wood grain effect and the inside a pale blue. Hats were such expensive and treasured items that the box had a lock on it! In original condition with a few nicks and dents commensurate with its age as shown in the photos. The bottom is solid and has its original black paint in good condition. A carry handle sits proudly on the top of the lid.
