Bortoletti Glass & Bronze Inkwell Cal45 with Hamburg Ink
The Bortoletti Cal45 inkwell is a refined expression of Venetian craftsmanship. Designed in Atelier A70 in Venice and brought to life by generations of skilled artisans, this handcrafted glass inkwell combines sculptural bronze detailing with practical functionality for the modern calligrapher.
Elegant Design with Stability
The inkwell features a heavy, finely crafted bronze base that provides exceptional stability during use. The bronze screw cap is carefully hand-finished and seals securely, preserving the ink inside while adding to the inkwell’s architectural presence.
The wide mouth of the glass bottle allows easy dipping for nib holders and dip pens, making it both beautiful and practical for everyday writing sessions.
Includes 30ml Hamburg Calligraphy Ink
This Cal45 inkwell comes supplied with 30ml of Bortoletti – Hamburg calligraphy ink, renowned for its depth of colour and intensity even after drying. The featured Cagliostro black evokes the mystery and richness of alchemical traditions, delivering bold, expressive results on paper.
Hamburg inks are formulated using carefully selected raw materials and controlled production methods, ensuring smooth flow and strong pigmentation suitable for demanding calligraphers.
Venetian Symbolism Meets Modern Balance
