Vintage Cast Brass Tabletop Easel, Shell Crest and Acanthus Scrolls, 18"

A tall cast brass easel with a shell crest at the top, beaded rails down both sides, and acanthus scrolls curling out at the feet. Two short brass pegs hold whatever you lean on it, and a strut folds out the back.

Most easels disappear behind the thing they hold. This one gets looked at too. Maybe a small oil painting on the mantel. Maybe a favorite platter on the sideboard. Maybe an old cookbook open to the page everyone asks for.

It doesn't just prop things up. It turns them into something to look at.

Cast brass tabletop easel with a palmette and shell crest, beaded uprights, scrolled feet, a display ledge with two support pegs, and a hinged rear strut. Unmarked. 18" tall, 10" wide. Dulled patina with darker wear in the recesses and light grime, shown in the photos. Unpolished; it can be shined up or left as is.

For the mantel, the sideboard, or anyone with a painting that's never had a proper place. #followthefeeling @tallmadge_ave_vintage

Each piece is vintage or antique and has lived a life before finding its way to Tallmadge Ave; natural signs of age, wear, patina, and imperfections are part of its character and are to be expected. All pieces are sold as-is, and any notable condition issues are described in the product listing. That said, if it arrives damaged or isn't as described, we'll refund you in full, including shipping — since each piece is one of a kind, we can't simply send a replacement. Otherwise, returns are accepted within 14 days of delivery. Questions any time at christine@tallmadgeave.com — we're a two-person shop, and we answer.
