This cold painted Vienna bronze inkwell is designed to resemble a litter of fox kits nestled within a game bag. The piece is hinged, allowing the fox heads to be lifted to access the ink pot beneath. The game bag is meticulously detailed, with textures that mimic the appearance of leather, complete with a strap and buckle. The back flap of the bag is turned upwards, serving as a convenient pen rest.
