"Silver Italian Inkwell Mantua XVIII Century"
Silver inkwell, shuttle-shaped, oval tray with beaded edge and lion-head ends resting on ball feet, two bottles and pen holder with openwork bodies, relief and festoon decorations, pine cone handles. Hallmarks of Mantua, late 18th century. Weight 490 grams.
In good general condition, it has some old restorations, presumably carried out in the early 1900s, visible in the photos, which do not affect the aesthetic appearance.
