The Pattern:
Offered is a sophisticated three-piece desk suite by Tiffany & Co. in the coveted "Venetian" pattern (Model No. 21534-Z). Produced during the height of the American Arts & Crafts and Renaissance Revival movements (c. 1910-1920), the Venetian line is celebrated for its intricate, low-relief scrollwork and "ermine" or rope-twist borders.
The Standout Feature:
Most notably, the Perpetual Calendar Frame retains its rare, original set of calendar inserts. In the world of Tiffany metalwork, these original cards are frequently lost to time; finding a set with the inserts intact significantly elevates this suite to collector-grade status.
The Suite Includes:
* Perpetual Calendar Frame: Features an arched top with deep-etched Renaissance motifs.
* Double Inkwell Base: A heavy, weighted bronze base designed with dual pyramid housings.
* Pen Tray: A sleek, rectangular tray featuring a central shield engraved with a classic "SSS" monogram.
