Antique Army & Navy Technical Drawing Set, Wooden Box, Geometry Maths Architects

  

Army & Navy Technical Drawing Set. A rare late 19th century Army & Navy Cooperative Stores Limited technical architects maths and geometry set.

It is housed in a beautifully figured wooden box with brass top plate and escutcheon. The lock works and opening the lid reveals a fitted blue velvet interior. The top tray has the technical drawing instruments and this lifts out to reveal the straight edged instruments.

The folding rule and the parallel rule are marked for Army & Navy CSL as is the turned pen in the top tray. Box with wear, marks and fading to the front edge - some veneer losses and age related splits.

One spring divider missing, the others without the wheel nuts. Pencil and one dip pen unlikely to be original.
