Description: This pair of antique/vintage figural "Blue" crab cast iron inkwells candle holders is a unique addition to any collection. The intricate details of the blue crabs make them a standout piece for any collector of castiron, seafood, beach themes or inkwells. Crafted by hand Antique figural cast iron inkwell in the realistic form of a crab. This piece opens up to reveal an inkwell. There is no separate ink insert, it is built in. The size is 7 inches across, 5.5 inches back to front, and 1.5 inches deep. The lid is attached to a hinge, with cotter pin as hinge pin. The lid stays open in place for use. Black paint appears to be original. A tiny bit of oxidation, but not much. You can oil it in order to inhibit rust, but I like to leave antiques alone, so that is up to you. They can hold ink, or tapered candles and serve as a decorative item for any home or office. The origin of these inkwells is unknown, adding to their mystery and allure. Add this pair of one-of-a-kind inkwells to your collection today! I use Pirate ship to get the best rates for my buyers and I guarantee the product you receive is 💯 as described.
