About the Item

Very precious Italian inkwell and signature pad with original paper. It's made with very rare portoro marble, particular for its black with brown and gold veins. Price is for the complete set. The set is a luxurious and exquisite piece of functional art that embodies the elegance and sophistication of the Art Deco movement. Art Deco was a prominent design style that flourished in the 1920s and 1930s, characterized by its geometric patterns, bold lines, and a combination of luxurious materials. Portoro marble, a rare and sought-after black marble with striking golden veins, was often used during this period to create high-end decorative objects and furniture and it adds natural luster and golden veining add a sense of opulence and refinement to the design. The desk set follows the principles of Art Deco, featuring clean and geometric lines with sharp angles and sleek curves. As a product of 1930s Italy, the set showcases the fusion of innovation and luxury that characterized this period. Its timeless design and use of high-quality materials make it not only a functional writing accessory but also a collectible and treasured piece of Art Deco history. Price is for the two pieces.
