Bronze 1880 French Inkwell

Magnificent Antique French Inkwell, Signed by the artist. In perfect condition. Original brass inkwell intact plus brass ornamentation over bronze. Signature at base of back. 1880. I love old inkwells, especially French ones and I have sold some beauties. This one is very different. Most of mine tend to be quite feminine. This one could suit either lady or gent but I feel it is a little more masculine. Sure would enhance a fine desk.
