Summary
A copper ink can with a hinged circular lid and long, narrow spout. At the base of the spout is a semi-circular shaped well to collect any drips running down the spout. There is a roughly semi-circular 'guard' attached to the top of the can above the spout, to prevent ink pouring out of the lid when the can is tilted. There is a handle on one side.
