A very attractive, good quality 2 bottle inkstand; the rectangular stand with pen reservoir having cast shell border and stood on 4 ball feet. The 2 cut glass bottles having silver plated lids and collars. This is a very fine Inkstand, particularly well made, heavy for size. I always worked on the basis that the trumpet mark on Dixon pieces came in about 1885, which I had to refresh to confirm as my first thoughts were that the piece dated about 1850 because of the good construction and quality in silvering. Circa: 1885 - 1910 Full J dixon marks with trumpet - 8790 - and a further mark I am unfamiliar with Good Condition - silver plate in good condition - cut glass bottles good with the usual chips to the hidden glass locators on the base (certainly in no way distracts and is usual to find) - would benefit a further cleaning (The stand was completely black when I acquired it I have cleaned it but a further cleaning will bring it up a further level) Buyer will be completely delighted with this item 7.5 inches (19.5cm) length X 4.75 inches (12cm) depth approx   « Less
