Remarkable in artistry and function, this nearly century-old ink blotter is hand-painted Japanese porcelain. The gold paint creates a beautiful trim and is filled in with many colorful flowers and florishes. It is stamped "Hand Painted Nippon" under the rocker part of the blotter, as seen in the second photo. This stamp was only used from about 1890 to 1920. No cracks, only a little fading of the gold paint on handle/knob. W: 10.6cm H: 8.5cm L: 6.5cm

Even more stunning in real life, this beautiful blue inkwell measures 5.5cm X 5.5cm X 5.5cm. It has no identifying marks, but we're reasonably sure it is pressed glass from the 1920s or '30s. The only significant damage is a little chip on the cap, which can be seen in the second photo.
