About the Item

Pair of Panther Bookends This pair of bookends with a panther motif originates from France and was made around 1930. The bookends are made of ceramic and are designed in the typical Art Deco style of the 1920s and 1930s. The bookends are designed in the form of panther sculptures, depicted in a stylized and elegant manner. Panthers were a popular motif during the Art Deco era and were often used in art and design. The sculptures are meticulously crafted and demonstrate great attention to detail, particularly in the texture and pattern of the fur. During the Art Deco era, bookends were a popular decorative element in upscale homes and were often considered status symbols. Today, Art Deco bookends are highly sought-after collectibles and are often used as decorative elements in vintage interiors. A pair of bookends like this can be a unique and elegant piece that brings a touch of nostalgia and elegance to any home. Panthers were often viewed as a symbol of power, elegance, and exoticism, and were considered a kind of manifestation of wild nature. In art and design, panthers were often depicted in stylized form to convey a certain abstraction and modernity. Panthers were also a popular motif in jewelry making and were often incorporated into brooches and pendants. They were often adorned with precious stones such as diamonds and emeralds to emphasize their majestic beauty.
