This Art Deco blotter, produced in Poland in the 1930s, is crafted from metal—most likely brass—with a warm golden-brown hue and authentic signs of aging, including dark patina and subtle wear. Its pronounced hammered pattern extends over the entire surface, creating an expressive texture and combining semi-matte finish with soft, intermittent sheen; light catches the raised hammer marks while deeper creases remain subdued. The blotter’s gently arched top and rounded sides reflect the geometric clarity and flowing lines characteristic of the Art Deco period, blending functional logic with a sculptural, streamlined outline. All elements remain original, and the visible surface aging—darkening, wear on edges and underside—speaks to careful historical use rather than restoration. The structural integrity is preserved, with no evidence of repairs, leaving it in good condition for a vintage artifact.Despite its compact size, the blotter’s form eloquently recalls a time when even utilitarian desk objects aspired to artistic distinction. The hammered texture tells the story of 1930s fascination with innovation and the pulse of new machinery, while brass renders both shimmer and substance. The interplay of light across the uneven surface and the mellow aged patina embody the balance between function and craft; the piece seems to whisper of focused workspaces, ordered routines
