Mango Wood Rocker Ink Blotter

A simple traditional tool for the pen-and-ink writing desk.

Designed to absorb excess ink from freshly written pages, this traditional rocker blotter brings an old writing-desk practice back into everyday use. Its curved wooden base allows the blotting paper to move gently across the page, helping lift excess ink without dragging across the writing.

Made from solid mango wood, this version is deliberately understated: warm natural wood, a simple turned handle, and no unnecessary ornament. It is equally at home beside a fountain pen, dip pen, journal or stack of correspondence.

For Boston Lore Studio, its appeal is precisely its simplicity—a useful writing tool whose form has changed very little because it does its job so well.
