A brass desk set of genuine presence — the kind that once anchored a serious writing table and still commands a room.
The letter rack rises to 6.5" on a 10x7" base, cast in pierced and repoussé brass with a backsplash of cherubs amid scrolling acanthus. The casting has depth and dimension that separates it from later reproductions — the detail reads from across a room. A beaded border frames the base and a pen trough runs the width of the piece between the tray and the rack.
Two inkwells sit on extended arms, each with a domed, ornately collared lid. The glass inserts are absent — both brass housings are intact and complete.
Patina is warm and consistent throughout.
Tucked inside every set, a little something for first time Tavola customers — a hand-finished vintage passport notebook. Note the piece, the moment, the person you gave it to. One day these pieces will sit in someone else's hands — and they'll know it came from yours.
