I don’t know a lot about ink bottles. Is this a reproduction? If it’s real is it anything special

Looks real to me. Standard cone ink. Not particularly rare but still nice. I've never dug one

It's real. I bring them home and sell them in the $1 box. If another color, would be a good bottle, but the aqua ones are super common.

No it is not a reproduction it is called a cone ink 1890s aqua color
I paid a quarter for it at a yard sale
That's a great deal always liked cone inks they come in a variety of colors I've dug them and cobalt blue and brown and the honey amber and aqua

Never know what deals you can pick up at yard sales. Good find.

If you know your stuff, and find something like that at a yard sale, always ask the seller if they have any more. They might have boxes full in the basement.

I did. They sayed they found it at a yard sale and we’re going to break it and use the shard for a art project but they never got around to it thankfully
