FAQs

An antique brass inkstand is a decorative desk accessory from the 18th or 19th century designed to hold ink pots and pens, often cast in brass with elaborate sculptural motifs.

Victorian inkstands were commonly constructed using cast brass, bronze, mahogany, or oak bases, paired with ceramic, milk glass, or cut glass ink reservoirs.

Authentic 19th-century pieces typically exhibit natural oxidisation in crevices, evidence of hand-finishing or casting seam marks, and heavy solid brass or bronze construction.

Place the inkstand centrally on an executive office desk, atop a stack of vintage books on a bookshelf, or on a library side table to add historical interest.

Dust the item regularly with a soft, dry cloth; avoid harsh chemical cleaners to preserve the aged patina, and wash glass inserts separately with warm water.
