A refined vintage Hermès Paris desk accessory, made in France during the 1960s and designed in the maison’s iconic equestrian tradition. This elegant paper weight features a beautifully modelled horse head terminal at one end, with expressive facial detail, a flowing mane, and a strong sculptural profile. The elongated base gives the piece a clean, architectural form, while the raised horse head adds a distinctive decorative presence.
This piece captures the understated luxury associated with Hermès desk objects of the period — practical, beautifully proportioned, and rooted in the brand’s equestrian heritage. The silver-tone finish offers a polished yet quietly aged appearance, with natural surface patina and light wear that give the piece authentic vintage character.
Perfect for use as a paper weight, desk object, letter holder accent, or decorative equestrian collectible, this piece would sit beautifully on a writing desk, executive office, library table, or gentleman’s study.
