**Early 20th Century Molaroni Pesaro Italian Majolica Inkwell**

A beautiful hand-painted Italian majolica inkwell, believed to be by **Molaroni Pesaro**, a pottery name associated with the historic ceramic traditions of Pesaro, Italy.

This charming writing-desk piece features hand-painted floral and vine decoration, soft blue detailing, gilt edging and a removable centre ink pot. The small openings around the top would have been used to rest dip pens, nib holders or brushes.

A wonderfully decorative piece from a slower, more elegant writing era, when letters were written by hand and a desk could hold both purpose and beauty.

Please note: this piece shows age-related wear, chips and damage to the removable ink pot, adding to its timeworn character and reflected in the price.

A sweet little reminder of the days when even the spare toilet roll got a frock.

There is something rather satisfying about taking a few simple bits and pieces and turning them into something completely your own. 🧵🪡

A little lace, a beautiful button, a scrap of fabric and a few vintage-inspired touches can soon become a pincushion, a sewing-room decoration or a practical little treasure with plenty of personality.

Getting creative does not always need a complicated plan. Sometimes it begins with one lovely button that is far too pretty to leave tucked away in a drawer.

We have plenty of buttons, trims and haberdashery pieces in store for your next project, whether you already know exactly what you are making or you are waiting for a little spark of inspiration to wander in.

What have you been creating lately? We would love to see your projects. 🌿
