*The firm of W. & J. Milne of 126 Princes Street, Edinburgh (in business from 1844 to c.1905) were celebrated ‘box makers’ in fancy wood, leather and ivory and registered patents for some of their products. They had a key craft skill developed over several generations of family involvement in leather as book bindings and for pocket book making and therefore focused their own workshop activities in these areas, buying in components such as glass or silverwares from other suppliers.
