About the Item

A Portuguese silver inkstand from the early 19th century This early 19th century silver inkstand consists of a tray, raised on paw feet with openwork border with a pen holder, a candle holder, an inkwell and a silver sand pot. In the middle is a table bell (without bell). Portuguese silver hallmarked. From 1690 onwards, the Portuguese hallmark system was based on a series of city marks. In this hallmark the letter L for Lisbon, crowned by a crown (1690-1887). This inkstand has undergone a change, by adding pipe attributes. In the candle holder, a pipe stopper fits and in the pen holder two pipe cleaners. The pot with lid, without bell, was used for tobacco. The set can simply be used again for the desk as an inkstand and leaves out the loose tobacco parts. The silver is also Dutch hallmarked with the Tax mark and the pipe stopper with the silver hallmark "sword" (originating in The Hague) The measurement is 1 cm high, 17,5 cm wide and the depth is 10,5 cm The total weight is 470 grams
