Sourced in France, this charming antique inkwell features a beautifully cast bronze base of overlapping leaves, complete with a matching leaf motif on the hinged lid. The clear glass insert remains in place, once used to hold ink for handwritten letters and notes.
Its organic form and natural patina are classic of the Art Nouveau period — a celebration of nature’s graceful shapes rendered in metal and glass. A lovely piece for a writing desk or as a decorative accent that speaks quietly of another time.
Origin: France, circa 1890–1910
Materials: Bronze and glass
Condition: Age-appropriate wear and patina; hinge intact and functional.
Dimensions: 3" H x 7" W x 5" D
