If you were to google the definition of an inkwell, you’d end up with something simple such as “a small container for ink”. And while this is certainly accurate, you don’t really get a full idea of what an inkwell looks like. The beautiful antique piece this person stumbled upon is most likely still very functional, and I think can be described as more than just a “container”.

With two wells for dipping your pen into, this lovely inkwell seems to have some beautiful carvings on it. The double container (and lid) serves a dual purpose: one well holds ink so that you may dip a quill into it and the other one holds water, so that you can clean your quill.
