Castiçal de Escritório

The key on the side is what sold me—it’s such a simple, clever way to lock the glass in place, and the whole thing feels solid without being bulky. I’ve had mine on the desk for a few weeks now, and it’s become the little ritual I look forward to each morning.

The side key mechanism feels so satisfying to turn each morning—it’s a small ritual that actually makes me look forward to lighting up my workspace. The cast iron base has a nice weight to it, and it’s held up perfectly through my long workdays.

I’ve had mine on the desk for a month now and it’s become part of my daily rhythm — the side key handle still feels as smooth as the day it arrived. Lovely that it’s been made the same way for centuries, you can tell.
