$1,295per set

About
Beautiful pair of Esther Fuhrman (American, b. 1939) abstract modern bronze staircase bookends, one taller, the other wider. Tallest: 6.9" H x 2.75" W x 3.6" D. These bookends have a brutalist and sculptural essence. In short, they are sculptures. Luminous bronze and vernigris together add depth to simple but severe angles that give depth to the eye. The shapes and material tell a story to the eye. A signature of Fuhrman, a study in form and shapes. An incredible addition to your art collection or décor. True, one of a kind art pieces.
Mid-Century, Brutalist, Modern, Organic Modern, Coastal, Hollywood Regency, Eclectic.
