Description from the seller

Beautiful Art Nouveau / Jugendstil inkstand from around 1900, made of reconstituted wood, with a decoration of lily of the valley and iris, ink reservoir in crystal enhanced by its lid also in Bakelite edged with brass, a very handsome object of fine workmanship. The reference labels of the inkstands are still present.

It is missing an inkpot. This does not detract from the beauty of the object. It is also possible to give it a fresh look by applying a light tint to make it more uniform.

It can be used as a jewelry holder, for brushes…
