The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

During the 19th century, novelty and sporting-themed inkstands gained immense popularity across Great Britain as symbols of country pursuits like hunting, fishing, and equestrianism. Metalworkers crafted these detailed desk accessories to combine functional writing utilities with decorative figures of dogs, game, or horses.

Victorian inkstands were commonly produced using electroplated nickel silver (EPNS), cast brass, bronze, or sterling silver. Bases were often heavily weighted, while figures and reservoirs were cast separately and mounted to the metal base plate.

Authentic 19th-century pieces often display maker marks, EPNS stamps, or registry numbers on the underside or base rim. Natural surface wear where the base metal shows through the silver plating, known as bleeding, along with sharp hand-chased decorative details, indicates genuine period age.

A sporting inkstand acts as a focal accent when placed on a dark wood executive desk, a leather-bound book stack, or a study bookshelf. It complements traditional library settings, dark paint schemes, and tailored home offices.

Clean silver-plated items gently using a soft microfiber cloth and a specialised non-abrasive silver polish to prevent removing the thin layer of silver plate. Keep ink reservoirs free from moisture accumulation to prevent internal corrosion.
