ABOUT PRODUCTID 17607
This Art Deco letter holder from the 1930s, produced in Germany, is an example of utilitarian design where function and the disciplined aesthetic of the interwar period harmoniously converge. The base, crafted from polished black marble with natural beige and golden-brown veining, provides a deep, reflective ground for the three progressive aluminum dividers. The round, matte aluminum compartments—secured with visible screws—form three distinct sections for organizing correspondence. The whole composition is symmetrically balanced, while the interplay of cool metal and the warmth of veined marble exemplifies the Art Deco fascination with bold geometry and contrasting materials. The condition is very good: only minor signs of use are visible at the corners of the marble base, with no significant damage or restoration.This letter holder seems to narrate an era when everyday objects became small-scale sculptures—streamlined yet reverent to the modern spirit. The progressive circles evoke the rhythm of stylized handwriting and the orderly calm of a 1930s desk, when a letter carried the weight of ritual communication. The cool gleam of aluminum and the glossy marble surface catch the light, subtly conjuring the confidence and order esteemed by the Art Deco aesthetic.Such a piece can adorn a classic office desk or a hall console with equal ease. It harmonizes well with other bold period accessories: geometric mirrors, lamps with aluminum details, and accents in dark veneer or glass. In a mid-century interior or contemporary workspace, pairing it with monochromatic, minimalist accessories will highlight its sculptural, architectural silhouette and enhance the rich material contrast.
