Large French Art Nouveau Pewter Inkwell Tray with Intricate Antique Floral Motif

Beautiful pewter inkwell tray with intricate floral design. Ideal for home or office decor. At the end of the 19th century and in the early years of the 20th century, pewter, less expensive than silver but equally beautiful and evocative, by virtue of its plasticity and its soft lines, allowed master pewterers to create some true masterpieces. Art Nouveau pewter was, and still is, particularly sought after by collectors. The inkwell has an intact structure and there are only signs of use such as ink stains.
