About the Item

A sophisticated and classic blotter made in Mexico. The piece is trimmed in solid brass with a leather framework and reptile / snake facing / folding flaps with pockets on the opposing side. A wonderfully decorative, yet functional piece for the important desk. The trim holds hinges that allow the middle flaps to open, revealing pocket on both sides, with one side featuring each day of the work week. The wording on inside pockets is Spanish: Lunes - Monday Martes - Tuesday Miercoles - Wednesday Jueves - Thursday Viernes - Friday the back is lined in silk as is the blotter page - it does need a piece of blotter paper we can provide at sale. We have found the price guidance tool is not an accurate comparison of Low to High pricing on the platform. We price our pieces competitively and take great pride in presenting exceptional pieces and many times include additional materials and respected craftsmanship. If you have questions about descriptions, pricing or provenance please feel free to contact us for additional information.
