Lap desk owned by Charles Webster Leadbeater. Posted on Theosophical Society in England Facebook page on 1 May 2015 with the caption "Objects once given as tokens of appreciation often appear in archives, and here is a beautiful one at the TS in London. It was presented to C.W. Leadbeater in 1900 by Theosophists in Ceylon. Perhaps he left it in Harrogate when he returned from Europe to India in 1909; we hope to find out more. The spectacles are also thought to have belonged to him. It seems likely that there is some record in “The Theosophist” or elsewhere of the giving of this item, which perhaps may be called a lap desk."
