Vintage Heyde Metal Inkwell, Kingfisher Sitting on a Branch with a Large Walnut

Description: This auction is for a vintage metal, hand painted inkwell. It features a Kingfisher sitting on a branch next to an unusually large walnut. The walnut is hinged and opens to feature the inkwell. At first I thought it was a hummingbird, to scale with the walnut, but the bird is certainly a Kingfisher, so perhaps there is some old German folktale being illustrated here, or they just weren't concerned with scale. This piece was made in Germany by the Heyde company, sometime pre-WW2 (Heyde was very active in the early 1900's, but did not make it out of WW2). In the 2nd to the last picture I show these pieces piece with a ruler (the piece is about 4.25" wide at the widest, and just under 3" to the top of the bird's head). In the last picture I show this with a 2 1/8" tall Vienna Bronze Dachshund. That Doxie is shown for size reference only and is not included in this auction. Please see my other auctions and my eBay store for vintage German and other metal animals, figural desk items by Heyde and other makers, vintage toy soldiers, steam engines and accessories, tin and windup toys, and vintage and out of print books on old toys. Taxes: eBay now automatically adds sales tax to your cost for items going to states that require it. Payment: I accept all the payment methods that eBay offers. Payment is due within four days from the end of the auction. If your payment is not received within this time period the eBay automated sales tool takes over and starts hounding you. Shipping: My auctions end on Saturday. If you pay by 5:00 E.S.T. on Sunday I'll have them in the mail on Monday. Payments made later in the week or purchases made from my store are shipped as soon as I can get to the Post Office, but that can take several days. I combine shipping on all purchases made and paid for at the same time (unless you're combining a book and toys as books use inexpensive media mail in the U.S. while toys can't). I use First Class (up to 16 oz) and Priority mail. Books ship media mail. I only charge actual postage - no added fees. I use lots of bubble wrap, peanuts, and good boxes. In a group of multiple pieces each item is wrapped individually. Original boxes or other original paper item go into a plastic bag in case you get delivery on a rainy day. International Shipping: I gladly ship international. Please note that there can be lengthy delays at Customs. Per eBay rules, import duties, taxes and charges are not included in the item price or shipping charges -- these charges are the buyer's responsibility. Return Policy: Returns are accepted. I use a loupe to examine the toys while I'm listing them and I try and mention the significant condition issues I see. I value my eBay reputation and I'm not knowingly going to put out false or misleading info on a toy. I leave feedback so please do the same. If there is any problem with the item contact me first before leaving feedback, and we’ll work it out.
