DESCRIPTION Superb quality and significantly heavy antique English solid sterling silver reproduction of a rococo Paul de Lamerie inkstand from around 1741. There is an original at the V&A item no;0104037 Inkstand | Paul de Lamerie | V&A Explore The Collections. Another of the same weight as this example was sold at auction in 1960 for £3,600 (at the time a nice 3-bedroomed bungalow on the South Downs would have cost less). The magazine clipping is from May 1960.
