    Default Beautiful ink boxes

    Ink comes in a variety of lovely bottles, but some of those bottles also come in beautiful outer boxes. Here are some of my favourites.

    What are your favourite ink boxes?

    Nice

    But I have to admit that I only keep the ink (bottles) and throw away the boxes (no matter which, never kept one yet).

    Ok, not completely true, some are kept for a while in a cabinet, because my son like small boxes as moving archery targets.
    We use a tin can cable car in front of a foam target which moves forth and back and shoot at the boxes hanging down from the cable car on a cord.

    So we have always a demand for fresh ink boxes.

    You could send us yours as well......

    Well some are a few years old now. Do you have them too?

    I keep the bottles in their boxes as they are easier to stack and store, especially bottles like the vase-shaped Sailor bottles, of which I have quite a few.

    However if I do decide to get rid of any I’ll send my surplus to you for “recycling”
