Original, patinated bronze pencil holder decorated with filet

A featherrest is generally made of bronze, an alloy of copper and tin, which has been treated to obtain a dark and aged patina that gives it a rustic and elegant appearance. The patinated bronze featherrest is designed to be placed on a desk or table, and can be decorated with leaves, or flowers. It is used as an office accessory to give a touch of sophistication to the work environment, while also serving as a practical support for the feathers used to write by hand. This bronze feather rests witnesses the craftsmanship of the time and the writer’s passion for his work.
