This is an absolutely rare piece. Elaborate Antique Bronze Tripod Inkwell made in the 18th century is a great example of the craftsmanship of that era and is absolutely exquisite, even the bottom tray is beautifully embossed.

The cover was broken so it was obvious that it had been repaired.

This ink bottle has an overall height of 6.76 inches, a bottom tray diameter of 6.5 inches, and a weight of 3 lbs 9 oz.

Sold as is.
