A delightful antique hallmarked sterling silver capstan inkwell. It does show
some signs of wear, a few dings on the base rim. A little play to the hinge.
There is a full hallmark on the base which is rubbed, and a partial hallmark
inside the lid. We can deduce from these that the inkwell was produced in
Birmingham in 1906, putting it in the reign of Edward VII. The maker's
initials are almost illegible, but appear to be, 'UZ.' I've not been able to
determine who this might have been. I think it may have a glass liner but
this is missing.These antique inkwells are becoming harder to come by.
