FAQs

A perpetual calendar is a desk accessory designed to display the day and date indefinitely through manual adjustment of internal cards or sliders. During the Art Deco period of the 1920s and 1930s, these functional items were designed with geometric silhouettes and luxury materials.

These pieces were typically constructed using sterling silver, tortoiseshell, chrome, or polished timber for the outer casing. The internal date indicators were commonly printed on celluloid, card, or bone sliders.

Authentic pieces feature hallmark stamps on silver components, period-appropriate typography on the date cards, and natural variation in organic materials like tortoiseshell. Clean geometric profiles and mechanical card alignment are key characteristics of the era.

Place the calendar on an office desk, library shelf, or console table alongside contemporary leather goods and minimalist brass accessories. Its compact scale and strong geometric frame suit modern executive spaces and curated shelving displays.

Gently buff the silver frame with a soft microfiber cloth and dedicated silver polish, ensuring the cleaning compound does not touch organic elements. Keep the object away from direct heat and excessive moisture to prevent tortoiseshell warping.
