Antique Egyptian Revival Figural Bronze Pharaoh Inkwell
This Antique Egyptian Revival inkwell, crafted from cast bronze and brass, dates to approximately 1880. The central bronze figure, depicting a pharaoh or deity adorned with a nemes headdress, is intricately cast and features a hinged lid that opens to reveal a removable glass ink reservoir as well as outstretched arms to hold a pen. The figure is seated upon a circular brass base, which is engraved with a variety of stylized Egyptian hieroglyphic motifs, including scarabs, birds, and ankh symbols. Resting on three small ball feet, this piece showcases fine craftsmanship and the distinctive aesthetic of the Egyptian Revival movement. This unique collectible is a testament to the enduring allure of ancient civilizations
