An antique Gorham sterling silver double inkwell or inkstand, beautifully made with pierced work decoration and resting on four raised feet. The stand features two glass ink pots, a double stamp box, and a pen rest — a complete and elegant writing desk accessory.
The glass inkwells are in very good condition without chips or cracks, with normal surface wear on the bottoms. Please note that one inkwell lid does not close completely — it could possibly be adjusted, and the price reflects this.
