The Desk Easel is cast in solid unlacquered brass and offered in two sizes for displaying a small painting, framed photograph, book, or tablet. Its weight gives the object the presence of traditional desk hardware rather than a temporary stand.Designed by Gabriela Anastasio and made by hand in Anastasio Home’s Rajasthan atelier or foundry, the piece reflects the studio’s emphasis on material, proportion, and small-batch craft.“I like an easel on a desk or console because it lets one picture or book become part of the room rather than part of a stack. Brass gives it enough weight to feel permanent even when what it holds changes.”-Mrs. MayfairProduct Details Solid unlacquered brass Small: 6 in L × 4.75 in W × 8 in H; Large: 7.75 in L × 4.5 in W × 12.5 in H Designed in Litchfield County, Connecticut Handcrafted in Anastasio Home’s atelier or foundry in Rajasthan, India Hand-finished surface designed to develop character with use Care & OwnershipKeep unlacquered brass dry and hand-clean with a soft cloth.

The collection is designed in Litchfield County, Connecticut and produced in the brand’s own atelier and foundry in Rajasthan, India, where natural stone is hand-carved and metal is cast and finished by hand. Most stone pieces begin with remnant Indian marble or travertine, so veining, tone, texture, and availability naturally vary from one stone lot to another.As seen in: Architectural Digest; House Beautiful.
