1970s Modernist Polished Brass Tape Dispenser

About the Item

Modernist tape dispenser circa (1970s USA) in polished brass. The circular disks that hold the roll of tape in place adjust to accommodate different sized rolls. There are some lines of tarnish to the interior circular plate (can only be subtly detected from one side). Otherwise, in nice, polished condition with only minor signs of wear. A very impressive desk accessory complementing any Hollywood Regency or modernist decor.
