About the Item

Stunning sterling silver inkwell with an inlaid tortoise shell lid. Circa 1912. Part of a collection from a private collector who traveled the world insearch of inkwells and unique small items. I did clean the inkwell shown in the later photos, the video looks better than the photos, hard to photograph. The glass liner is missing but it's a great piece.
