Art Deco Glass & Silver Inkwell, W. Neale, 1929
Here we have a very stylish Art Deco Glass & Sterling Silver Inkwell. The body of the inkwell is a large cube of glass with chamfered edges and the inkwell itself sunk into the middle. This is mounted by a round silver collar and an octagonal silver lid with a square of engine turned decoration. There are no initials or personalisation of any kind.
The inkwell is made in Birmingham by silversmiths William Neale & Son Ltd and dates to 1929. The firm was founded by William Neale in Birmingham in 1862, becoming William Neale & Son in 1890. They produced a very wide range of silverware from trophies to tea services and cigarette boxes to pencils and were highly successful. They remained in business into the mid 1960s.
Condition is very good, with no chips or cracks in the glass, no dings or dents in the silver and just the superficial surface wear that you would expect after over 90 years of good service. The hinge is in good working order. Please make sure to view all the photographs.
The glass base is 7.7cm / 3ins square and it stands 6.5cm / 2.5ins high to the top of the lid. It weighs in at 746g / 26.3oz.
The hallmarks, on the side of the collar, are a little rubbed but still easy to read. They show the lion passant for Sterling Silver, the anchor assay mark for Birmingham, the date letter E for 1929 and the W.N Ltd in a shield makers' mark for William Neale & Son Ltd.
Shipping in the UK is £12 by Royal Mail Special Delivery, which includes cover for the value of the inkwell.
Overseas customers, please ask us about shipping costs to your country before making a purchase.
