Description from the seller

A beautiful and rare Victorian metal ink pot in the shape of a dog's head (labrador). Made around 1890 in England. The dog's jaw can open; inside there is an opening with the original porcelain ink pot. This is very special, as it is almost always missing. The metal head is mounted on a circular wooden base. There is a small, unobtrusive restoration at the rear. A beautiful and highly decorative addition for the collector.

This special collector's item is packed very carefully and shipped with track and trace and insurance.
