Texting could never.
An ornate French brass inkwell and feather quill for the calligrapher, prolific note-writer, or anyone keeping beautiful stationery alive.
This substantial vintage brass inkwell measures approximately 11" × 8" × 5.5", with an elaborately decorated rectangular base, original glass bottle insert, and a lidded central well topped by a wonderfully unnecessary horse finial. A feather quill and bottle of black ink complete the set, so it arrives ready to put back to work. Equal parts useful desk accessory and decorative object, it makes a particularly good gift for someone who still understands the pleasure of putting pen to paper.
In good vintage condition with the patina and surface variation expected of aged brass. There is some oxidation underneath the flip top and the original ink bottle has an uneven lip.
