Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

  • Period1900 - 1920
  • SizeH 4.8 cm (2 in) x W 11.4 cm (4 in) x D 5.7 cm (2 in)

This Edwardian double inkwell takes the form of a heavy glass desk accessory decorated with a hobnail pattern across the underside, topped by channels for dip pens and nibs, and finished with two solid sterling silver hinged lids featuring Birmingham hallmarks for 1907 alongside maker marks for Britton, Gould & Co. The clear glass body reflects light through its multi-faceted surfaces, complemented by the polished metallic lustre of the silver caps, showing minimal wear consistent with age and gentle use. Measuring 4.8 cm high, 11.4 cm wide, and 5.7 cm deep, this piece sits neatly on a study desk, bureau, or writing table to hold ink and pens while providing a functional touch of early twentieth-century style in a modern home office or library.
