A classic story with a little secret of its own.
This vintage copy of Black Beauty has been given a new life as a handmade hollow book safe. Its rich red cover with gold lettering gives it that lovely old-book character, while inside you'll find the original endpapers and original page from the book carefully retained inside the hidden compartment.
It still looks like a classic book sitting on your shelf, but open it up and there's somewhere secret to tuck away your favourite treasures.

A note about the condition: This is a vintage book and does have some markings on the back cover. Please see the photos for a close look at the condition. These marks don't affect the function of the book safe.
This is a real book that's been carefully hollowed and transformed, not a storage box made to look like a book.
Perfect for jewellery, keepsakes, letters, small valuables or just having a secret spot on your bookshelf.
Although this book safe may show signs of previous love and age, it’s ready for its new life.
