19th century inkwell. Superb old inkwell in terracotta, enamelled. It is round, in the shape of a half-ball with the lid in gilded bronze. Inside, the glass is present. Enamelled decoration of blue scales, forming a wide band with 6 chimeras. Height: 6 cm. Diameter: 10.5 cm. Good condition, a chip underneath, near the edge, which is not very visible when it is placed. On the enamel band, 2 small losses, really few, see photo 1, 2 and 3. No signature. Original object to collect or to offer.
