Long before emails & keyboards, the writing desk had its own collection of elegant accessories.
This Edwardian silver inkwell is a lovely reminder of the days when handwritten correspondence was part of everyday life. Its distinctive bell shaped form features a smooth, polished surface, complemented by a hinged lid with an angular handle & a clear glass liner.
With its understated decoration & pleasing proportions, this is an attractive example of traditional desk silver, equally suited to a writing desk or a collection of period silverware.
Hallmarked Birmingham 1909.
Dimensions approx. 8.0 x 8.0 centimetres/3.1 x 3.1 inches (Height x Diameter).
