Deux couches d'étagères peuvent contenir jusqu'à quatre stylos. Pour démarrer votre collection, nous avons inclus un stylo en bois avec une plume en métal. Il y a un petit bassin en céramique au bout qui peut contenir une petite quantité d'encre. Bien que la section carrée puisse s'adapter à notre encrier carré en verre bleu cobalt, mais pas le transparent. La boîte se verrouille lorsque les étagères sont alignées et que le couvercle est mis en place.
La boîte globale a la taille de voyage parfaite avec 11,5 pouces de long.
Very sturdy box though it is not fine wood working, good for a period feel. Mine came with a clear inkwell (with lid): smaller than the blue glass inkwell which I also ordered. It appears that the clear one does leak around the fitted metal lid. The supplied wood pen with its nib in place will not fit into 3 of the 4 storage slots, but will fit in all without the nib. I also ordered the bone pen but that one does not fit into any of the slots with its nib and only one of the longer bottom slots without its nib. I will add some cloth or thin leather to remove the nibs for storage. Another modification I'll make is to carve a shallow channel lengthwise on the lid so I'll have some place to rest the pen(s) when not in hand.

This is a larger box than I anticipated, and the workmanship is more solid than I expected as well. The pen that is included writes beautifully. There is quite a bit of room for accessories in the box - of the four slots for pens, I have the included wooden pen and nib in one of them, sealing wax and a small seal spoon and small seal in another, two trimmed down quill pens in a third and the last I was able to put a candle (had to trim down the base of the candle just a little but. Very happy with my purchase.
