Description
Design & Inspiration
There is a quiet authority to a perfectly appointed room — every object chosen not merely for function, but for the story it tells. This Neoclassical Black Ceramic & Brass Tissue Box embodies that philosophy. Inspired by the decorative vocabulary of late 18th-century Louis XVI interiors, it transforms the most everyday of objects into an objet d'art worthy of a grand salon or a meticulously curated bedside table. The deep, lacquer-like gloss of the black ceramic body creates a dramatic visual weight, while the cast-brass ornamental mounts catch the light with the warm gleam of polished silver — a pairing as timeless as it is striking.
Materials & Craftsmanship
The body of this tissue box is formed from high-fired ceramic, finished in an obsidian-black glaze that achieves remarkable depth and uniformity. Atop the lid, a hand-cast brass wreath of laurel and acanthus leaves frames the tissue aperture with the precision of period silversmithing. The front façade is adorned with a classically inspired swag-and-ribbon festoon mount — a signature motif of Neoclassical decoration — rendered in finely detailed cast brass. Scroll-form side handles and four ornate cabriole-style feet complete the composition, each cast with individual attention to surface relief. Every brass element is hand-finished and polished to a luminous sheen, making each piece a unique expression of the craftsman's hand.
Dimensions & Details
Weighing 4 kg, this tissue box holder has a reassuring physical presence on any surface. Its rectangular form accommodates standard tissue box inserts. The contrast between the matte-depth black ceramic and the bright metallic brass mounts ensures it commands attention in any placement — whether centred on a console table in the hallway, displayed on a living room sideboard, or gracing a luxury hotel reception. Please refer to product specifications for precise measurements.
Handcrafted in Egypt
Every piece in the Brass & Wood collection is conceived and produced in Egypt by artisans who carry forward a tradition of fine decorative craftsmanship. The brass components are individually cast, hand-filed, and polished before being carefully mounted to the ceramic body. This handcrafted luxury tissue box is available in multiple brass finishes — allowing it to harmonize with gold, antique gold, or silver decorative schemes. As a product of the hand rather than the machine, minor variations in surface texture and finish are the hallmarks of authentic artisanal work.
