This inkstand, created by French artist Philippe Claude Montigny between 1765 and 1775, exemplifies the refined craftsmanship of the Rococo period. The piece features a black and gold color scheme, with intricate gilded ornamentation including a Greek key pattern and a wave design. The inkstand, now housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, is a testament to the artistic and practical sophistication of the 18th century.
