Tintenfass - Clover Leaf Motifs ca. 1900-1915 - Messing, Emaille
A refined and highly decorative Art Nouveau inkwell set dating from the early 20th century, executed in gilt metal with elegant organic detailing characteristic of the period. The piece is centred around a square-cut clear glass inkwell, housed within an ornate gilded mount and topped with a domed hinged lid featuring subtle floral segmentation.
The elongated rectangular base is gently curved and fitted with two original pen rests, offering both functionality and visual balance. Behind the inkwell rises a graceful openwork gallery of scrolling lines, adorned with stylised green enamel clover leaf motifs that provide a vivid contrast to the warm golden surface. The enamel remains intact, enhancing the overall visual appeal. This interplay of materials and forms reflects the naturalistic aesthetic of the Art Nouveau movement.
The craftsmanship is of high quality, with fine detailing visible in the mount and decorative elements. The hinged lid opens smoothly, and the glass insert remains intact.
The set is preserved in good antique condition, showing light, honest wear consistent with age and use, including minor surface marks and small imperfections to the gilding. These do not detract from its overall elegance and display appeal.
A sophisticated desk accessory and a desirable collector’s piece, perfect for enthusiasts of Art Nouveau design, antique writing instruments, or decorative objets d’art.
