ANTIQUE #SA584947

Art Deco Silver And Crystal Inkwell By Cartier

Status: This item has been sold
Sold by: Chequers Antiques

This delightful Art Deco silver and cut crystal inkwell was made in London in 1934 by Jaques Cartier (1885-1942), who ran the London establishment of Cartier for his family’s famous firm. Cartier were renowned for making and selling fine jewellery and luxury goods, and this inkwell is a small but lovely example. It is formed from a piece of crystal, simply and accurately cut at the edges, and surmounted by a square hinged lid, at each corner of which is a single hobnail. The collar bears marks for London 1934, with the addition of the Silver Jubilee mark, and Cartier’s maker’s mark. These are repeated as part marks on the inside of the lid (see photos). The piece is in fantastic condition, with all of the corners intact, and with good clear marks. Small but perfectly formed. All enquires about this or any other of our stock are welcome.
