19th Century French Gilt Brass Ink Brush

A beautifully detailed antique ink brush stand featuring rich repoussé floral detailing and a wonderfully timeworn patina. Originally used to rest or clean calligraphy brushes or writing tools between use, pieces like this bring such a thoughtful, collected feel to a desk or shelf.

We especially love it styled beside stacked books, layered into a study, or used as a small decorative catchall for matches, pens, or treasured objects.
