Sumptuously Ornate Renaissance-Style Inkwell Set in Brass-plated Metal. Continental, c. 1850-1900. The inkwell holder constructed of a number of pieces, without any maker's mark discernible. Attractively detailed in the late Victorian manner where more is better. The piece overflowing with intricate arabesques, heraldic griffins, and a large lion mask to oversee the rack where one's pens would rest. The whole very well preserved, with only the glass receptacles for the ink lacking. Width: 12".
Estimated Value $800 - 1,200.
