This Napoleon Bonaparte inkwell is a masterpiece, rich in imperial symbols. A large patinated bronze bicorne, adorned with its French cockade, holds a small inkwell with the imperial eagle, hinging to reveal its original porcelain cup.
The front features emblematic attributes: Chasseur à Cheval colonel epaulettes, the Emperor's sword with its "N", the Légion d'Honneur and his portrait, as well as his battle telescope.
The whole rests on an elegant Tinos Green marble (Greece) with a gilded bronze protection. The original gilding is superb, featuring a play of matte and gloss, and the bicorne displays a beautiful patina.
