    It's a nice design and, no doubt, very well made, but it is a museum replica.

    I found this while searching around Ebay. It was listed as Loetz/Kralik. I have had one of these on my radar but they are usually pretty pricey. Pricey enough that I didnt even bid on this one LOL. The seller happens to be in the same city as I am and had listed it twice with no bids. I contacted the seller with an offer and I would pick it up anywhere in the city. A deal was struck and I picked it up last night. Another addition to the "Wife's Christmas Present Pile"

    Kralik Inkwell with a Feather Decor (I'm am guessing at the decor, I'm not sure this decor has been named)

    If I were given the chance to name it I would choose the word "Undulations" (I love that word).

    cxgirl,

    Thanks. I am still on the look out for a Tiffany inkwell and I sure would like to add a Loetz inkwell to our collection. There is a couple of Antique shows locally in the next month that I plan on hitting. Hopefully something will show up there :)

    Breath-taking!
    How about raffling it off?
    And allowing only applicants whose names have the letters G-I-L-A in their names.
