condition
Delightful condition for an item already well into it's second century. Glass liner has no cracks or chips, the silver is in good condition but there is some evidence of what may have been an engraving having been removed by laser. That said, the overall aesthetic and practicality of the inkwell is not significantly impacted (see photographs). Please do make time to review all of the pictures to gain a full appreciation of the item and its condition. Should you have any other questions in respect of either the item or its condition, please contact us and we will be pleased to assist wherever possible.
