Maker: Brown and Steventon  Pattern: Bluebird Chintz

With gilt. This is such a fabulous and unusual piece - an ink and pen stand with a small central clock. Majestic in style, either side of the clock are two removeable inkwells and to the front of the stand is a well for pens. The floral pattern is inset with birds which look like pheasants.
No backstamp.
The stand and ink wells have light crazing and there is a little wear to the gilt. Sadly no key for the clock but it does tend to tick for a short while when moved so would seem to be in working order. Overall a superb piece.

Dimensions: Base of stand 30.5 cm x 14 cm / Base of stand 12 ins x 5.5 ins
