I modeled this for my wife who wanted a way of displaying the Quill Pen that we purchased a souvenir after watching Hamilton on stage for the first time. Since it is a quill pen, I thought it only right to use an Inkwell for holding said pen.

I designed and modeled it after similar inkwells that were in use in North America during Hamilton's life. Rather than something very ornate, I went for something that might be used by middle class Americans like Hamilton himself.
