This antique cast and cold-painted inkwell has no maker’s marks, but presumed to have originated from Austria and dating to approximately 1900 and done in the Anglo-Indian style. This ornately cast figural sitting camel has been hand-painted in a realistic style and the ‘hump’ is hinged and contains a glass insert for the ink. This inkwell is nicely executed and made to be viewed from all sides, so can function simply a sculpture.
