Early 20th C. Stirrup / Equestrian Desk Calendar.
Bridle leather and nickel / chrome white metal finish, with molded month "cards" which create a perpetual calendar - simply rotate they as the months pass.
Signed Eldonian, Made in England, Real Hide.
6" tall, 5" wide, 2" deep.
Leather tanning is beautiful, with very thick hide and strong stitching. Stirrup framing has nice detailing as well - even showing foot tread markings in the base as a real stirrup would.
And the calendar cards...charming. Aged ivory with bright blue text, with a font and details that make you smile.
In keeping with Aesop's fable, Fox and Crow's Motto is "Beware of False Flattery!" So, with each listing we offer a true confession about the item...
This is just a wonderful thing - pure and simple. Beautiful design, property crafted, timeless - and will pair with any decor.
And the gentle patina makes it seem as if it has been in your family since your Great-Grandfather had a horse in Royal Ascot...and you can't put a price on that!
