    Re: Tea kettle ink plum puce found

    I think this is a BANNER find. Auction prices for these are always great, say $500 plus for fine complete examples. Nice recovery glassman. I thought it would be hard to beat that nice teal one you got not long ago...but you did it with this one.

    I know nothing of ink wells but to have made the banner after a dozen posts, it must be special.
