This is vintage brown Bakelite box with the typical gold lid for Pelikan produced by Günther Wagner in 1950. It would have contained the ink to dip your fountain pen into.
In 1863 Günther Wagner became partner in a business founded by Carl Hornemann. In 1878 Wagner added the name of Pelikan from one of the elements in his family crest: a Pelican feeding four chicks in its nest. Following Wagner’s retirement his son-in-law and successor Fritz Beindorff led the company to become one of the world’s leading makers of fountain pens. In the 1970s Pelikan Schoolpens, together with those of Geha were the most popular pens in Germany.
It is in a very good condition thanks to the bakelite that is very durable. It has a diameter of about 6 cm and height of about 2.8 cm.
There is quite a bid of rubbing and scratches to the gold on the lid.
A good example to add to your collection.
