20th Century Italian Sterling Silver Inkstand, hHandicraft made in Italy
About the Item
The inkwell, rectangular in shape, was completely handmade obtained from a silver plate and finely embossed and chiseled with scrolls and flowers, typical of the Italian Baroque of the 1700s.
On the inkwell, two special spaces have been created for the crystal ink holder finished with a solid embossed and chiseled silver lid.
Another central space was created to place the bell.
The bell is very heavy, made in casting and then chiseled. Precisely the "massive" characteristic of the bell causes the sound to be very harmonious and warm.
Italian silverware, already with a centuries-old tradition, had a great development in the twentieth century and produced pieces of the highest quality that the whole world envies. Italian craftsmanship had a kind of new Renaissance after the war.
A great many high-quality silverware was born where exceptional pieces were produced that now decorate the most prestigious houses.
