A collection of presentation cases and storage boxes, likely of British origin and dating from the late 19th to the mid-20th century. The lot includes a diverse range of sizes and finishes, notably a large, flat rectangular green leatherette case, several black leatherette boxes with gold-tooled borders, a blue textured case, and a dark brown case with a faux-alligator pattern. The items are constructed from leatherette or paper over wood and cardboard frames, featuring brass-toned metal hinges and various closure mechanisms. These cases were originally intended for items such as medals, decorations, jewellery, or small collectibles. No manufacturer names or hallmarks are visible on the exterior surfaces.
Condition report:
The collection exhibits significant signs of age and use. Condition varies between items, with visible scuffing, peeling of the leatherette coverings, and exposure of the internal structure. Some hinges show signs of wear or minor oxidisation. These items are sold as-is for restoration or replacement use.
