Condition Report
The deskstand appears in good overalll condition displaying general scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing. The detail to the central shells has rubbed. There are large chips to the glass inkwells. The mounts to the inkwells are hallmarked in Sheffield rather than London , maker and date match however. The hallmarks overall are pretty clear and legible, a little distorted in areas.
