Yes, the tray has four containers
to hold ink, sand powder used to dry writing, another to store adhesive wafers, which were used to glue and seal letters, and of course quills, pens for writing.
In the center is the bell.

Re: Spanish Marks
Thank you very much for your clarification.
I hope you enjoy this beautiful Cordoba inkwell with marks from 1818 by Diego de Vega y Torres and Francisco de Paula Martos y Róman.

Re: Spanish Marks
Thank you very much once again.
I assume that both are city marks from Mallorca.
Can you be more specific about the dates?
I have tried unsuccessfully to find access to a Spanish marks catalogue online.
In Portugal, only the city assay mark and the silversmith's mark were used.
On pieces intended ...

Re: Spanish Marks
Gracias,
Thank you very much.
Is it common for only the city mark to appear without the silversmith's mark?
The mark on the other piece looks like an A surrounded by dots.
Could that also be a city mark?

Re: German?
Thank you very much.
I also check that the Assay Master mark is for Peter Nicolai von Haven (1729-1749).
In this case 1741. That's correct.
What do the other two marks mean?
The one that appears to be ND is perhaps that of the silversmith.
What does the one that appears to be ICS/1777 refer to?
It's ...

Spanish Marks
I would like help identifying two Spanish silversmith marks placed in two different ecclesiastical chamber sticks (palmatoria).
They are items from the mid-18th century, without city marks.
