This elegant pair of mid-20th century inkwells is crafted in ornately gilt brass and fitted with finely cut glass holders, creating a refined and decorative ensemble for a desk, library, or study. The footed frames are richly detailed with classical-style ornamentation, showcasing the quality craftsmanship and decorative appeal typical of the period. The contrast between the warm gilt brass and the faceted glass adds both visual depth and sophistication. Both inkwells are in good condition, with minor wear consistent with age and use. The larger inkwell measures approximately 3.3 inches high with a 6 by 6 inch base, while the smaller example measures approximately 3.3 inches high with a 4.5 by 4.5 inch base. Functional as writing accessories and equally appealing as decorative objects, this pair offers timeless character and a distinguished presence for any desk or display.
