Copied from old French designs andshowing floral design features on the intricate silver-plated metalwork thatsurrounds thisbeautifulinkwell.
Holds a Volume of 30 ml of ink.
Measuring a Diameter 54 mm or two inches.Overall height 68 mm.
Made out of Flawless cobalt blue glasswith FIRE POLISHED stopper made by Brosse of Boulevard Bourdon in Paris,indisputably makers of the highest quality glass bottles.
The difference is clearly visible even inour own range. The glass has no flaws, bubbles or faults.
The colours appear more even because ofthe way the glass is distributed in the finished piece.
There is as much labour producing aperfect ground stopper as there is in producing the “flacon” (the bottle)itself.
The manufacturer's cost of producing thebottle is the same as the cost of the stopper.
The stoppers are made in steel moulds.All glass moulds leave a part-line (a “flash-line”). The mould parting line onthese perfectly fitting ground glass stoppers has been removed by“fire-polishing”.
The stoppers are mounted onto an ironframe that holds them in place while flames melt away the traces of the partline. Only Brosse ground stoppers form an air-tight seal which is re-enforcedby an invisible polythene sealing ring which means that even in a pressurisedaircraft cargo-hold the sealshould be tight.
Sorry for the high postage costs to USAand Canada but USPS have increased their charges.
