What are antique desk accessories?
The term ‘desk accessories’ just refers to all the paraphernalia you keep at your workstation. This includes organisers, letter racks, paperweights and more. Antique desk accessories are versions of these accessories which are over 100 years old. Our antique desk accessories date back as far as the nineteenth century, and in addition to the above, they include stamp boxes, page-turners, ink wells, hourglasses, and letter openers. There are also some more decorative items, which we hope will add a little bit of interest to your desk, including miniature antique sculptures and figurines. But be sure not to overlook our twentieth-century pieces. Anything made up until 1920 is currently considered an antique. In addition to some ornamental, but highly useful items, including beautifully carved stationery boxes, we also have a selection of glass decanters that you can fill with a spirit of your choice and sip from at the end of the workday.
Antique brass desk accessories to explore
Brass is a timeless metal, somehow managing to come across as modern despite often being over 100 years old. This is because brass desk accessories are becoming increasingly popular and are used to create very contemporary, minimalist interiors. For example, antique brass double inkwells and letter openers are must-haves for every antique enthusiast's office. And, if you’re more of an old soul, who likes a bit of clutter, there’s no reason you should be left behind. Take a look at our selection of antique brass desk accessories and find something with a fascinating history to tell.
