Description:
We have recently acquired a collection of 19th century English shoe form shuff boxes of the highest quality from a major estate in New York City. They are highly unusual both in the quality of the work and in their condition.

A beautiful piece, a little larger than most. Polished wood inlaid with brass pique on the top and sole with a metal toe guard on the bottom. The lid slides open to reveal a large chamber for the snuff.
