AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Calendrotype inkwell, a very peculiar piece with two ceramic inkwells and two drawers on the sides
Perfectly functioning in good overall condition, some wear due to time
One inkwell does not have the bronze cap; I can't be sure it's missing because there isn't a hole for it to pass through—perhaps it was made that way
Otherwise in excellent condition
Shipping via Poste Italiane or Mail Boxes
