About the Item

For your consideration is this charming 1930's Art Deco letter rack, the perfect desk piece for your home office or even perhaps telephone table in a hallway. Features a stylised boat with sails in two dimensional chrome which sits on a highly polished green onyx base. Originates from England and is a design we've not come across before. In good vintage condition, only to note some wear to the chrome, nothing that you wouldn't expect from a 90 odd year old item but also nothing too distracting.
