Antique Victorian Eastlake Cast Iron & "Snail" Glass Revolving Double Inkwell Desk Set

Description:

  • Design & Style: A fine example of Victorian Eastlake-period office decor. The set consists of two "snail-shell" shaped clear glass ink pots that pivot within a sturdy, ornate cast iron stand.
  • Functionality: The revolving mechanism allows the inkwell to be tilted forward for use and backward to seal, a common feature designed to prevent ink from drying out.
  • Material: Heavy cast iron frame with a dark "japanned" or patinated finish and two molded clear glass wells.
  • Features:
    • Dual Wells: Designed to hold two different ink colors, such as black and red.
    • Pen Rest: The top of the cast iron frame features a notched rail designed to serve as a horizontal pen rest.
    • Dimensions:  5X5X5
