What Is It? November 2015

We had two correct answers to last month’s What Is It contest. Congratulations to Carolyn Kundel of Roland, Iowa and Vicky Kellen of Castle Pines, Colorado. You have won a year’s subscription to the Mountain States Collector. Vicky Kellen writes, “I have not entered your contest for quite a while, and the times that I did enter, I felt certain that I knew the object being described. But, here’s a shot in the dark. I believe that this blue glass oject shaped like a chair/throne with a regal animnal on top is an inkwell. Just a thought.” And a good one, too.

This inkwell has a cat on the seat cushion which makes up the lid. The body of the chair is the well in this pressed-glass piece. It is rare to find an inkwell with a separate glass cover that is in tact.
