Ceramic Inkwell, Late 19th Century, Sweden

About the Item

Fantastic ceramic inkwell, with what seems to be a pottery oven in the midst of two naivistic lions. You lift of the top lid to place pens and lift up the two lions heads for ink. Could have been made for a pottery fabricants desk, as it also seems to have been made for a desk with a hole for the inkwell itself.
