A Herta Baller pen holder in the form of a fish, designed by Walter Bosse, Austria, in the 1950s.

Walter Bosse designed a host of helpful household animals during the mid-20th century, and this fish is a wonderful example of his much-loved work. The brass fish has been modelled with an endearing pose & joyful expression; this little guy is very happy to lend a helping hand as an unusual & stylish desk accessory. You'll never misplace your pen, or pencil, again!

Walter Bosse is best known for his whimsical 'black-golden' line of patinated cast brass animals. Early examples, like this, are revered for their quality of design and manufacture.
