Eagle Inkwell For Sale on 1stDibs

At 1stDibs, there are many versions of the ideal eagle inkwell for your home. An eagle inkwell — often made from bronze, metal and marble — can elevate any home. You’ve searched high and low for the perfect eagle inkwell — we have versions that date back to the 19th Century alongside those produced as recently as the 20th Century are available. When you’re browsing for the right eagle inkwell, those designed in Empire, Art Deco and Victorian styles are of considerable interest. Many designers have produced at least one well-made eagle inkwell over the years, but those crafted by Albert Marionnet are often thought to be among the most beautiful.

How Much is a Eagle Inkwell?

Prices for an eagle inkwell can differ depending upon size, time period and other attributes — at 1stDibs, they begin at $345 and can go as high as $7,500, while the average can fetch as much as $1,000.

Finding the Right inkwells for You

Now that we no longer need vintage, new or antique inkwells for written communication, these elegant desk accessories make for a distinctive decorative touch in any home office or study.

Prior to the 19th century, the inkwell was an integral part of the writing process. The first fountain pen was patented in 1827. Typewriters found acceptance during the 1880s, and the ballpoint pen, which replaced the inkwell on most desks and writing tables of the era, modernized the way we write. (Later, it would transform how some of us make art.) Today, a well-designed antique or vintage inkwell is a fun, decorative accent for any work area.

If you find yourself working from home today more often than not, why not freshen things up a bit? Small changes can help elevate your workspace: Incremental edits to your interior, such as rethinking your shelving, swapping out your wall decor and adding a touch of the past to your modern-day desktop, can actually make a big difference. Alongside an ornate Art Deco–era desk lamp and an antique paperweight, your inkwell will look right at home and can support your effort to create a happy home office.

Find a collection of unique metal inkwells to suit any taste on 1stDibs or shop by style. Browse a range of Art Nouveau inkwells, Victorian inkwells, Art Deco inkwells and more. Search our selection of inkwells to find the perfect piece for any space.
