Inkwell with Lid
Not on view
This is another work from the rich region of Khorasan, eastern Iran, the most productive metalworking area during the 12th and 13th centuries. Inkwells were made of different metals. Here, the surface decoration is inlaid with two metals, copper and silver, making this object a particularly refined example of its type.
