18th Century Inkstand (Mozart-Wohnhaus)

An 18th century inkstand inspired by an original piece I saw in the Mozart-Wohnhaus museum in Salzburg.  Annoyingly I forgot to note down the full details of the stand, but I think it was made of leather - my re-creation is in wood.

I made the two ink wells from the necks of glass bottles to which I fused curved watch-glasses of the appropriate size - this turned out to be rather fiddly, but I'm pleased with the result.

My photo of the original, and a close up of one of the inkwells I made, can be seen here.
