This item offers, at each end, two ink receptacles, with lids with delicately chiseled top buttons with fleur-de-lis and pearl motifs.
The perimeter of these receptacles is perforated.
The center of this inkwell has a small feather reserve hidden under a rectangular openwork element topped with a small gilded bronze hippogriff sculpture.
The front includes a cavity for resting pens and fountain pens.
The sides offer two moving side handles that transform into small feet.
Still functional today, this writing accessory will bring character to a desk, a secretary or any writing space of your choice.
