Deep amber glass, compact lines, and raised molded lettering give this vintage "Fortschritt" inkwell all its character. Its body combines an inkwell and two pen rests, completed by a metal fitting with a hinged cover. A small writing object with an industrial silhouette, for a collection of inkwells or a desk centered around traditional calligraphy.
