Antique Marble Base Desk Inkwell with Glass Pot and Brass Lid

Details

An elegant early 20th-century antique desk writing set featuring a solid rectangular base crafted from dark green veined marble, designed with a front groove for pen rest and supported by small spherical brass feet. Likely crafted in Western Europe, it includes a clear cubic solid glass inkwell with an inner well, topped with a hinged brass lid showcasing a rich natural patina. The glass container rests securely in a central brass frame on the marble slab and can be removed for easy cleaning and refilling. Interestingly, the carved front channel served as an ergonomic rest for dip pens to keep work surfaces clean. Displays minor surface marks and age-appropriate metal wear, with no major cracks in the glass structure. A sophisticated and timeless decorative accessory for executive desks or vintage office item collectors.
