AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Elegant leather letter rack signed Le Tanneur, Paris, a true testament to the know-how of the great French houses alongside Lancel or Dior. A chic and timeless desk accessory, typical of Mid-Century Modern of the 1950s.
Ideal dimensions: height 11.5 cm, base length 26 cm, base width 12 cm and a weight of about 460 g – a perfect size to organize mail, invoices or notebooks with style.
This model is distinguished by its rarity: unlike most Le Tanneur letter racks found on the market, entirely in leather, this one combines with refinement a quality leather with a houndstooth-pattern fabric, which brings a graphic and decidedly vintage touch, highly sought after by retro décor enthusiasts. An uncommon combination that makes all the charm and value of this piece.
The original label "LE TANNEUR PARIS – made in France" is present, a guarantee of authenticity and French artisanal quality.
Condition: the leather has aged beautifully and shows a natural patina in places, a sign of authenticity and character. The two letter supports have a very slight play, which in no way affects their function.
A perfectly usable piece full of charm, which will find its place as well in an office as in a library.
All details are visible in the photos, which are an integral part of the description.
Careful and fast shipping.
