Impossibly pristine or elegantly unkempt, your desk reflects the work—and, of course, the man—behind it. This was the inspiration for the Hermès saltwater crocodile matte leather desk set shown here. The company has long been a leader in the field of occupational arrangements—its first office accessories were produced in the late 19th century; the current roster arrived in 1992. This latest set includes a blotter, mail tray, pencil cup, frame, vertical holder, and lamp, in the pictured Havane chocolate brown or in black. Other items can be added à la carte to give your escritoire that utility-belt feel. Hermès designed the luxe topper exclusively for its new Financial District store, which just opened at 15 Broad Street, across from the New York Stock Exchange, but it can also be special-ordered at other Hermès boutiques around the country. You will, however, need to make the trek to Wall Street to see the croc in its natural habitat.
Pendulette Boule steel and spherical mineral glass watch with calfskin, $3,300; Plein Cuir crocodile mail tray, $20,200; Loupe Oeil magnifying glass, $245; Clou de Forge pillbox, $245; Culbuto ballpoint pen, $205; Plume letter opener and ballpoint pen, $440; Hermès Vision agenda cover, $2,450; Plein Cuir crocodile desk blotter, $17,000; Plein Cuir crocodile vertical folder, $26,200; all available by special order.
