For sale is a striking, square and raised ink stand / Ink well in a beautifully simple design.
The inkwell is from renowned Artist and Art Metal Worker Hugh Wallis of Altrincham, near Manchester in the North-West of England.

- The large inkwell (at 4" along each edge) is clean polished pewter lines to form the height of the stand and is decorated with the triangular pattern punch marks (more towards the 1920s and Art Deco design than some other HW decoration), a less used pattern as a repeat design of punch marks around the base edges and shoulder to the ink stand.
- The polished pewter inkwell has been designed with a lovely pewter inkwell lid with hand hammered finish.
- The pewter inkwell is in good condition with age-related wear and is testament to HW metalwork expertise. The internal glass liner is in good condition and sits hidden by the lid.
- Punch stamped HW to the base as shown in the photographs for Hugh Wallis.
