    I have to wonder what the heck those two side pieces are.

    When I first saw the pictures I immediately thought of the mugs with the same thing on the side for discarding a used tea bag.

    Certainly sounds right, But do you know what the two side pieces are for? Pen wipe containers?

    Thanks....Ink & Quill stand looks right & the two side pieces were most likely for a wash??

    As an old guy at the flea-market once said: "Whatever it does, it's doing it now!"

    But yes, it's an inkwell, pen-holder and pen-cleaner all in one.

    AND I WANT IT!! :eek:
