A handsome Horseshoe shaped inkstand, the base made from solid English Oak mounted with a silver plated horseshoe and a square gallery to secure the glass inkwell.
The glass inkwell is topped with a hinged brass lid in the form of a Jockey''s cap with a silver plated peak, slight wear to edge.
There is a support for a dip pen, the inkwell can sit either way to have the pen at the back or at the front. I am including the pen shown (new) to provide a completed look.
Excellent condition, minor wear commensurate with age and use. 5 1/4'' x 6 1/2'' x 5 3/4'' tall to top of Jockey cap.
