The top has a removable reading ledge and can be stored inside if not used, the hinged top opens to lie flat creating a slope with royal blue gilt-tooled leather writing surface, a brass bar on the side flips up to keep the top tilted for reading or for use as a lectern, compartments for inks, pens and pencils, each leather covered side flips up to reveal storage below. There is a crafty spring which when released opens a secret compartment with two tiny drawers. It retains the original key. The quality of this box is exceptional.
