Early 20th Century Art Deco Era Bookends with Hand Carved Bear Sculptures

About the Item

Small, but coolest pair of bear bookends. Thanks to the wonderful bears, these hand-carved bookends from the 1930s are an absolute joy to own and look. These sculptural bookends have a warm and wonderful patina and the bears even come with their original glass eyes. These bears look like they are shaking up a tree in trying to get the ripe fruits to fall out. This pair could not be in a better condition and although they don't have the size and weight to hold a row of large books, they will look perfect with just a few dictionaries or other small books between them. Mind you, our price for these decorative and charming bookends even includes perfect packing (in a custom made box) and also free delivery from our store to your door in just 4 days. Wherever you may live on our beautiful planet. Maximum height x width x depth: 6.1 x 5.1 x 3.2 inches. We have a passion for the unique, for quality, for stylish yet practical and for craftsmanship of years gone by. Your purchases will be extremely well packaged and we look forward to serving you (again). You can shop all our 1000+ listings by pushing the button that reads 'View All From Seller'.
