Antique Art Nouveau Brass Letter Holder Wright, Bindley & Gell

Raised ‘LETTERS’ lettering, rounded feet and the warm tones of aged brass.

This early 20th century letter holder by Wright, Bindley & Gell turns a practical desk accessory into a decorative object. Made in solid brass, its raised lettering gives the front a distinctive graphic detail, while ball feet lift the form above the surface.

The design reflects Art Nouveau and Arts & Crafts influences, combining ornament with everyday purpose. Natural patina brings variation to the brass, highlighting the lettering and contours.

Use it to organise correspondence on a desk or keep cards and invitations together on a hallway console. Its warm metal finish sits well beside contemporary stationery, dark wood and a simple glass vase.

A useful piece of British deskware and a thoughtful antique gift for someone who enjoys writing.
