19th C. Black Forest Hand Carved Cat in Shoe Inkwell

This late 19th century Black Forest Swiss carved inkwell would make an adorable addition to any box collection. The inkwell, with hinged top, depicts a mischievous Puss popping out of the top of an old shoe. He has yellow glass eyes with nice detailed carving. The inkwell is missing its glass insert and there is age related chipping to back of shoe and ears, otherwise good condition.
