ProfessionalProduct description
Gilded bronze inkwell with crystal bottles, made in the 20th Century. One of the bottles has a chip where the stopper screws on, as shown in the images. Ø 32 cm, Ø 17 cm, h 9 cm. An antique triple inkwell is a writing implement dating back to an era when ink was stored in separate containers. Its peculiarity lies in having three distinct compartments for ink, often used for inks of different colors or for different types of ink. Antique triple inkwells can be made from a variety of materials, including bronze, silver, ceramic, glass, wood, or stone. They often feature elaborate decorations, such as inlays, engravings, or enamels. The shape varies depending on the historical period and style. They can be rectangular, oval, or circular, with three compartments arranged in a line or a triangle. Some models feature a pen holder or other writing accessories. Antique triple inkwells primarily date back to the 18th and 19th centuries, when handwriting was the norm. Each historical period has its distinctive style, with influences ranging from baroque to neoclassical.
