In A Nutshell Antiques and Interiors has dated this piece to the Victorian era.
The inkwells have hinged silver lids with beautiful cut glass bodies and the candlestick comes with its original removable sconce.
It is very well made and each piece is fixed to the base with a threaded bolt and screw. Each separate item is hallmarked including the tray, inkwell base, inkwell lids and rims and the candle.
The hallmark is for London, 1897, Josiah Williams & Co. The weighable silver is approximately 280g plus the inkwell lids and bases.
It is in good condition for its age with no major damages. There are some signs of age and use, some faint surface marks and a small dent below the rim of the candle sconce (see photo) but it isn't detrimental and the whole piece displays beautifully. It has been gently cleaned and polished is ready for use.
The best description comes from the photos so please look at them all carefully and if you have any questions just ask.
