Back in the days before ball point pens it was necessary to take a
pen and ink along with you. This little casse opens up to reveal
a box that at first glance resembles a lighter, but is actually a
container for ink. Depress the little button on the side and the
top oped to reveal an iterior lid that pops open when the side
clasp is released. Inside is the glass inkwell. The stopper is part
of the metal lid. Inscribed with the words "DE LA RUE & CO.,
PATENT CASKET INK" . The inkwell then fits inside the case for
extra stability.
