A Magnificent Large (1kg+) Antique Georgian Solid Silver Inkstand Regency Design - London 1813

£6,500    $8,711    €7,614
We are delighted to offer this spectacular solid silver inkstand made in London in 1813 with marks for Edward Fernell.
 
Large in presence, constructed with tremendous quality and quintessentially Regency, this inkstand presents exemplary qualities and desirable traits of the finest Georgian/Regency silversmithing & classical design.
 
Whilst a Rococo or more ornate design may have presented artistic flair, there is something undeniably aesthetic and elegant about classical Regency design with its heavily gadrooned border with a contrasting understated plain silver surface.
 
It lends itself to perhaps a more classical and professional setting - one can imagine that such an inkstand may have sat on a significant individual''s desk, such as a diplomat or perhaps that of a shrewd lawyer.
 
Its generous proportions which are larger than normal inkstands lends itself nicely to the above, exuding a quintessentially British quality of understated yet unwavering boldness and steadiness....
