Antique Clam Shell Inkstand Cup Holy Water Stoup
Bangor, County Down
£65
Description
This enigmatic item could be an inkstand, a decorative holy water stoup or a cup, and dates from the late 19th or early 20th century.
It features a natural seashell, possibly a Tridacna (giant clam) mounted on a metal pedestal base.
Historically these items served as functional art pieces and as decorative objects in cabinets of curiosities.
Happy to post.
