Antique French Ormolu and Green Onyx Double Bronze Inkwell Desk Set
$446.25$595.00
A wonderful turn of the century French desk set with the double bronze inkwells and pen tray in green onyx. The hinged bronze inkwells are carved and each have the pinnacles tops typical with the Louis XVI style. The marbled onyx has nice color with the carved out front perfect for resting a pen or letter opener.
Circa 1890-1925
Measures: 12" (30.48 cm) x 6" (15.24 cm)
Condition: Very Good — Light wear consistent with age and use, Minor chips on the edges and missing glass inserts. One of the bronze inkwells has a small dent at the side and both could use a good cleaning but we choose to leave this up to the new owner as some prefer the "antique" look. This vintage/antique item may have some wear such as scratches and other signs of ageing.
Condition can be Very Subjective to each individual collector - Multiple photos from different angles and in different lighting were taken to showcase the beauty and uniqueness of this piece. Please look at photos carefully as they are part of my description.
