Two glass wells are seated in thin metal squares to insure their stability. This is where the functionality ends as the ink well gives way to an artistic sculpture.Perched on the raised center of the base is a giant bird in flight. With wings outstretched he supports his rider, a diaphonous nude with arms outstretched and scarf flying in the wind.Her legs are crossed around the bird\'s neck and in one raised hand she holds a wine glass.A sensuous pairing of human and nature.The inkwell measures: overall height, 8 1/2\", width, 7 1/2\", and depth, 6\". Each well is 1 1/2\" x 1 1/2\" x 1 1/2\".We attempt to describe our pieces as accurately and honestly as possible.
