Oval Ink Well with Soft Red Double Stained Rat


Oval Ink Well with Soft Red Double Stained Rat
This specimen is a rat cleared and double‑stained using a soft red bone stain alongside a gentle stain for cartilage and soft tissue, suspended in clear fluid inside a vintage‑style oval ink‑well bottle. The skull, vertebrae, ribs, and limb bones glow with a warm red hue, while the delicate soft tissue remains translucent — offering a balanced and understated contrast that highlights the skeleton without overpowering the form.
The curved silhouette of the oval ink‑well lends the piece a cabinet‑of‑curiosities vibe — a refined blend of anatomical clarity and classic display aesthetics. A subtle yet striking option for collectors who favour understated, elegant diaphonized pieces in compact, artful forms.
