This metal is not marked, and silver polish did nothing to clean it. Brass cleaner (Wrights brass polish) did a nice job of shining it up. The only markings I have found are Pat. Dec. 28 ’97.

The inkwell measures 1.50 inches across each side and the sides are 1 3/8 inches tall. Total height is 2 1/8 inches.

The inkwell is shiny clean, but it had several years (or decades) worth of dried, stuck on ink in it when I received it. It is now completely clean and the lid works perfectly.

There are no chips, cracks, or other damage. See more at Debsellstoyou.
