This Bohemian iridescent art glass inkwell by Kralik rests on a removable bronze base with a scalloped rim and pierced designs. Kralik shaped the vibrant green, iridescent glass in a “draped” or “festooned” pattern. The hinged bronze lid resembles a stylized leaf, which is marked on the underside: “D.G.M. A.” and “K.K. OEST. PAT. A.”(Austrian patent).
