An Edwardian silver inkstand, the elliptical base raised on four splay feet and fitted to the centre with two removable cut-glass ink pots having plain silver collars with flat hinged lids. Hallmarked A & J Zimmerman Ltd., Birmingham 1901. Base length measuring 8 inches (20.3 cm).

Inkstand displays general surface wear, marks and scratches. Some tarnishing, especially to the underside of base, and would benefit from a clean. A couple of minor dints and some heavier surface marks and nicks visible to some areas, particularly the middle of the base. Both hinged lids appear in working order, however small gaps remain when in closed position. A few small chips and edge nibbles to glass. Some rubbing to hallmarks but all still legible including hallmarks to collars.
