About this product
This is a historical Carter's 1897 cone ink bottle, likely from the 1890s era, presented in a distinctive yellow olive color. Originating from the United States, it's an unmodified piece of history, specifically designed as an ink bottle. Its unique color and antique nature make it a collector's item, offering a glimpse into past manufacturing and design practices for writing accessories. This item emphasizes its American heritage and untouched condition.
Our take
As a collector of antique writing paraphernalia, I found this Carter's 1897 cone ink bottle to be a genuinely interesting piece. The yellow olive color is quite striking and distinct, accurately reflecting its stated era. It's clear that this is a dug item, which adds to its authenticity and history, though collectors should be aware of any potential wear that comes with that. The fact that it's unmodified and from the United States adds to its appeal for purists. While the price is on the higher side, it's a unique historical item for those who appreciate such details, rather than a functional ink supply.
