Cobalt blue was a popular glass color in the 18th century. This square glass inkwell fits in all of the writing desks and boxes.
1 3/8" wide by 1 3/4" tall
Good looking jar. Nice fit with the travel writing set, and holds more liquid than the clear glass inkwell since it is a bit taller and the sides/bottom are not as thick as the clear one that I received. Water test doesn't seem to leak but I may add a cork layer under the cap.

It's functional. And it will hold your ink. But the lid is not tight, so I expect your ink will evaporate if you do not use it everyday, which is what an 18 century person would have done. It's beautiful cobalt blue colour will also look nice as a window ornament.
