Birmingham 1909 unusual Edwardian period English hallmarked solid silver and cut glass inkwell by Henry Matthews, having a solid silver top extending down to the wonderful chased and applied silver edge shoulder decoration, which appears to "drip" down over the cut glass body. Very unusual.

Lovely facet cuts to glass over entire base.

Size-3 1/8 inches diameter by 2.25 inches high.

With a minor mark to silver lid, in very good condition overall.

An unusual and lovely piece, which would look lovely on any desk or table, and doubles as a great paperweight.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

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.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

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.
