Office & Study

Two of the most amazing old vintage bookends I have ever seen. You could also consider or use them as two carved busts. They are made of rosewood and the detail in them in phenomenal; they have glass eyes and teeth. I'll let the photograph tell the story. They are in very good condition for their age. They are definitely old, just not sure how old, may well be Victorian. They stand about 18 cms tall. You will never see something like this again.

This is a stunning Victorian inkwell set made of brass....someone must have spent some time polishing it. It is fitted with a gallery and sits on 4 ball feet. The tray is 21 cms x 9.5 cms, and 5 cms tall (top of gallery). The inkwells need some work...they need to be rescrewed to the main structure...one of brass well tubs is also split and one has a hole in it. This inkwell set came from an antique shop in Subiaco which closed down. The price tag on this was $1100. It is still there.My price is very reasonable.

This is a stunning art deco inkwell made of brown and black marble. It has a groove for an ink pen (I have some for sale somewhere too) and also comes with its own blotter, if that is what it is called. The inkwell is 14 x 14.5 cms...8.5 cms high. The blotter is 13 x 6.5 cms....7 cms high if you include the curved rubber bit. I've opened the lid (looks much tidier closed) to show you the glass bowl inside. This would give your office (desk) a nice period look and feel.

This inkwell came out of an antique shop that closed down. the price tag they had on it was over $1000, no kidding.

Crystal(?) paperweight in the shape of an owl or cat (?). Stands about 7 cms high.

A small glass paperweight with a flower inside....quite stunning. About 5 cms high.

A large glass paperweight with a purple flower inside and some catured air bubles. Very nice. Stands about 7 cms high. Shows a little age as there are some surface knocks on it.
