About the Item

French Art Deco Mahogany and Brass Letter Stand, 1920s An elegant and finely crafted letter stand executed in richly grained mahogany (Swietenia mahogoni), accented with refined brass mounts. Designed with a graceful stepped, curved profile, this piece exemplifies the restrained sophistication and architectural clarity characteristic of French Art Deco design. The warm tone of the polished mahogany (Swietenia mahogoni) is beautifully contrasted by the subtle gleam of the brass edging, lending the object both visual rhythm and a discreet sense of luxury. The construction is solid and precise, reflecting a high level of craftsmanship and careful attention to proportion and finish. Produced in France during the 1920s–1930s, this letter stand would have originally graced a refined desk or writing table, serving as both a practical accessory and a decorative statement. Today, it remains a timeless addition to an elegant interior, equally suited to a classic study or a more contemporary setting. Wear consistent with age and use.
