My research on inkwells took a dramatic turn when the Inkwell Project, which I created for loetz.com was erased by its new management. However, most of it can be found of my webpage

and now, on the pages of Collectors Weekly.
Pic. 1. The decor on the the tall, 7.5" bottle is still exhibited at the Passau Museum as Poshinger. The two smaller bottles, at 5.5", come from a friend. None has a pontil mark, but the one on the right shows the veining characteristic to Kralik inkwells still on view in the Kralik section at the Museum.
Pic. 2: Notice the similar veining decor on the blue bottle and green inkwell on the right. the PM has the inkwell corresponding to the blue bottle.
Pic. 3 shows a pair of vases I had previously called Stolzle, with their corresponding inkwells.
