Dimensions:
Inkwell: 3" H x 2.75" W x 2.75" D
Tray: 5" x 5" x 0.25"
A superb two-piece sterling silver and glass inkwell set, crafted by esteemed American silversmiths Dominick & Haff and retailed by J.E. Caldwell & Co., Philadelphia. Bearing the Dominick & Haff hallmark along with Caldwell’s retailer stamp, this elegant desk accessory exemplifies early 20th-century American luxury.
The heavy, cube-shaped inkwell is precision-cut from crystal with deep bevels and a central well, topped with a domed, hinged sterling silver lid. It sits atop a matching 5-inch square sterling tray, understated and finely proportioned with a raised edge. The design balances Edwardian refinement with early modern simplicity, making it an ideal piece for both traditional and contemporary interiors.
Dominick & Haff, founded in 1872, was known for its superior craftsmanship and innovative forms. This inkwell reflects their mastery of material and form—while J.E. Caldwell’s involvement confirms its place in the finest design traditions of the period.
