Price: [Insert your price]
A characterful pair of Victorian stoneware ink bottles, each showing the beautifully worn patina of time. Unearthed from an old Victorian bottle dump, these bottles bear the natural discolouration and surface wear typical of decades spent underground — a testament to their history and the era's disposal practices.
The pair includes:
One larger bottle measuring 13cm high x 7.5cm base diameter
One smaller bottle measuring 11cm high x 6cm base diameter
Both bottles remain structurally sound with no major cracks, though they show surface marks, stains, and minor imperfections consistent with age and burial. These features only enhance their rustic charm.
A wonderful addition for collectors or decorators seeking authentic, neutral-toned antique pieces that tell a story. Perfect for display on shelves, desks, or in vintage-inspired interiors.
