Which desk accessories earn a place on a working desk?
The desk accessories that earn a place are the daily workers — a catch-all tray, a pen cup, a letter rack, a task lamp — bringing order to a working surface; the finer, material-led versions sit under luxury desk accessories. We keep ours in leather, brass and wood at Eleish Van Breems Home.
How do I choose desk accessories for a home office?
Choose desk accessories for a home office by what actually clutters the desk: a tray for loose papers, a cup for pens, a stand for the things you reach for, matched in a material or two, alongside good stationery. Buy only the pieces you will use, not a full matched set.
How do I compose a considered desk?
A considered desk keeps a clear working centre, a tray to gather small things at one side, and a personal object or two such as a stack of books or a framed photograph. Leave the middle open to work in and hold the desk accessories to the edges.
What care keeps leather desk accessories in good order?
Desk accessories benefit from a light care routine: dust wood and brass and wipe them with a soft cloth, while leather can be treated with a suitable leather conditioner according to the material's care requirements; the hide pieces sit under leather desk accessories. Keep everything out of direct sun, which can affect wood and leather over time.
