Slate Pencils Box

Dating from 1768, this wooden pen box with two sliding lids was used for writing utensils. It’s carefully decorated with fine carvings and used to sit on my grandfather's desk. My granddad had a major influence on my decision to become a teacher like him. In my everyday life at school, I often think of him and how grateful I am to belong where I do.
