This exceptional piece is a remarkably large brass box in the shape of a lobster, made in Victorian England. Crafted with an excellent level of realism, it comes with a removable top that opens up with a small storage space - the interest and uniqueness of the object however is as a grand, bravado, and unmissable statement piece.
