Description

Enhance your office or library set-up with this handsome, 3-piece vintage executive brass desktop set. Combining mid-century sophistication with classic mid-century craftsmanship, this curated collection includes a solid brass heavy-duty banker's desk lamp, a Swiss-made Tiffany & Co. heavy brass travel/paperweight clock custom-engraved for John Hancock, and a vintage marble-base brass perpetual calendar desk accessory. Each piece features rich, natural vintage patina and warm metallic tones, offering an elegant aesthetic for any modern or vintage workspace.

The centerpiece of the collection is a classic mid-century solid brass banker/piano desk lamp, measuring 13 inches tall by 16.5 inches wide. Designed with executive utility in mind, the lamp features a heavy octagonal molded pedestal base with a front-mounted toggle switch, a graceful twin-curved support arm with a tilt adjustment mechanism, and a long, faceted brass shade. The lamp retains its original electrical wiring and shows character-building age patina and light surface wear consistent with age and use.

Adding executive prestige to the collection is a Swiss-made Tiffany & Co. heavy brass paperweight desk/travel clock, measuring 2.25 inches in diameter by 1.5 inches deep. Crafted with a solid cylindrical brass case, the top lid features a sunburst brush finish with an engraved "John Hancock" signature. The lid unscrews/lifts off to reveal a brushed golden watch face marked "Tiffany & Co." and "T SWISS MADE T". The underside features a Swiss Quartz movement casing marked "SWISS QUARTZ" with individual movement serial number 200570 alongside time-setting dials and alarm controls.

Completing the ensemble is a vintage brass roller perpetual calendar and desk pen stand mounted on a heavy, polished white-and-grey veined marble base, measuring 6.5 inches wide by 2.5 inches deep. The unit features a cylindrical brass roller calendar with knurled side knobs to adjust the day, date, and month, sitting alongside an adjustable black-and-brass swivel pen holder socket. The bottom is finished with a felt lining to protect desk surfaces, making this functional desk organizer a perfect vintage accent.
