For sale I have a Desk Set Item made by Tiffany Studios, New York. This is only 1 item from a 7 Piece Desk Set that I recently purchased from a Maine Estate. I sold the Notepad, Stamp Box and Rocker Blotter so there are only 4 pieces left. The Item for Auction is a "Inkwell" and it is done in Tiffany's "American Indian" Desk Set Pattern. The Inkwell measures 3 1/2" tall and is 5 1/2" in diameter at the bottom.

The Inkwell has the very desirable "Craftsman Brown" Patina and is a real Collectors Choice in The Arts and Crafts Style Decor. This is the most sought after and most Popular Patina in this Desk Set Pattern. This Desk set Item displays wonderful Geometric Patterns and Symbols to Honor "The American Indian".

The Inkwell is considered to be in excellent-mint condition as there are no dents, or dings. This piece shows very minimal wear. It still retains its original Inkwell Insert and I am happy to report there is no damage to this piece of Glass. It looks as good as the day it was made. It has a counter sunk polished Pontil so it can fit snug in the well and allows for the inner screw not to touch the glass. The piece is signed on the bottom with "Tiffany Stvdios New York" Impressed Mark along with the Pattern Number 1183 for the Inkwell Number. The spelling of Studios with the letter "V" denotes this as an earlier piece.

I will also be listing the "Blotter Ends (2), and Calendar/Picture Frame". These are in the same condition and Patina as the Inkwell. Please email me directly if you are interested in purchasing the remaining set. My email address is below.

Tiffany started using a 3 digit number for his Fancy Desk Set goods after 1902 subsequently this piece was made early circa 1902-1905. This is a quality item in the Tiffany Desk Set Items. The Quality and Patina doesn't get much better than this. I'm Sure the Lucky Buyer will be delighted with their purchase.
