The stand holds a slender tubular pen holder, also in a gilded finish, which supports a decorative green feather. The feather, of imposing size, shows a central black structure with airy and partially frayed barbs, offering a light and refined visual effect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe contrast between the gilded metal of the stand and the green hue of the feather creates a decorative ensemble with a style reminiscent of traditional writing accessories, while adding a vintage and elegant touch. The feather shows signs of natural wear, with irregularities and some detached fibers at the base, accentuating its authenticity and antique character. The pen holder inserts vertically into the base, ensuring good stability for the object.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe bronze base, with golden reflections, shows traces of oxidation and slight surface marks, typical of a period object that served as decoration or a desk accessory. No manufacturer markings are visible on the exposed face. The ensemble evokes writing instruments used in the late 19th or early 20th century, although the decorative aspect of the feather suggests a primarily ornamental use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis desk pen can serve as a decorative object on a desk, bookshelf, or display cabinet, as well as an accessory for staging at antique or vintage themed events. Its slender silhouette and combination of materials make it an original piece, ideal for adding a touch of authenticity to a workspace or reading area.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsed item and sold as is.
