Gerald Mathias has specialised in 19th century wooden and leather  boxes for more than 40-years, particularly post letters boxes, dispatch & despatch boxes, ballot boxes, Jewellery boxes, letter boxes and other desktop items.

He spent 25 years trading at Chelsea’s well-known Antiquarius on Kings Road, London from 1980 to 2006, where he gained a loyal band of discerning customers – both trade buyers and private collectors. More recently, 16 years ago, he relocated to The Old Cinema in Chiswick, West London.

All items for sale on this website and at The Old Cinema have been carefully chosen for their authenticity. Current stock includes Georgian and Victorian wooden & leather boxes: i.e. country house post letter boxes, despatch boxes, jewellery boxes, medical boxes, writing boxes, as well as stationery cabinets, and desktop and library accessories.
