ABOUT PRODUCTID 1968
This Art Deco letter holder from the 1920s presents a balanced, geometric form and a subtle interplay of materials. The rectangular base, crafted from polychrome walnut wood, features a warm, medium-brown hue and a satin finish that accentuates the natural wood grain. Three arched brass dividers rise gracefully above the base, their matte, soft golden surfaces and rounded forms embodying the streamlined, symmetrical motifs characteristic of Art Deco. The brass arches are securely mounted with round fittings, and the overall construction is solid and harmoniously proportioned—measuring 18 cm in length, 13 cm in height, and 8.5 cm in width. This piece is well-suited for organizing correspondence or displaying on a shelf, and is preserved in very good condition with only minor signs of age along the wood’s edges. Contained within this modest object is the spirit of the 1920s—a period when Art Deco brought measured ornamentation and refinement into everyday life. The brass arches create a gentle rhythm, quietly evoking an era of handwritten letters, formal invitations, and documents kept in order with an elegant gesture. The walnut wood, gently aged, conjures the atmosphere of a study where organization and aesthetics shared equal importance with the content of the papers themselves. The letter holder could be paired with a period desk—perhaps one veneered in walnut or ebony—alongside brass accessories or a Jugendstil lamp with a milk glass shade, underscoring its office heritage. It would also suit a contemporary space: a minimalist backdrop, a single framed print, or a glass vase would allow its geometric lines to stand out. It may be combined with other pieces from the 1920s or 1930s for a cohesive collector’s arrangement, or alternatively, serve as a striking accent among modern objects.
