The Travelling Poet | Receptacle Of Vintage Props

£275.00
Sold Out

Inspired by and named after a scene in the 1995 film, Before Sunrise. While walking along a river, Jesse and Celine get stopped by a wayfaring poet who asks for a word as a prompt to write them a love poem. Filled with all the things I imagine a hopeless romantic writer would carry around with them at all times, not knowing when inspiration will strike and poetic language flows.

The star objects in this receptacle are the antique Victorian inkwell and an unused bottle of vintage Abraxas carmine ink.]

MADE FOR PHOTOGRAPHERS, STYLISTS AND LOVERS OF VINTAGE.

Would make a unique and thoughtful gift for a lover of vintage and antiques.
