A good example of an antique silver plated desk stand complete with a pair of glass inkwells and a central candlestick. It is a stylish and good quality piece set on an ornate rococo style base with engraved foliate decoration. The inkwells have hinged silver plated lids with matching floral decoration and beautiful prism cut glass. The inkwells even have their original glass liners.
It is stamped on the base for the makers Martin Hall & Co.
It is in good condition for its age. There are no major damages, just some faint surface marks and a few minor dinks but nothing detrimental. The candlestick leans ever so slightly and the plating is a little tarnished in places but overall it is bright and still displays well. It has been gently cleaned and polished is ready for use.
