About the Item
These are a beautiful PAIR of good quality French Bookends of two metal bronzed swans on marble bases, dating to the Art Deco period, Circa 1930.
Each swan has been well modelled with good detail and then cast in a metal, possibly spelter, having a bronzed finish.
The bases are made of a lovely veined / mottled beige marble, all with slightly bevelled upper edges.
Each bookend has a good weight of about 1 Kg unpacked and the undersides have the original applied felt paper which is very worn, reflecting the age and use of these pieces.
The rear tail section of each Swan has "FRANCE" embossed into the casting, on the underside, as per the image.
We date these pieces to the mid-20th century, circa 1930.

Art Deco Lady Figurine Table Lamp Bronze Sculpture, French circa 1930
Located in Lincoln, Lincolnshire
This is a stunning figurine table lamp of a nude lady bronze Figurine sculpture made in France, circa 1930.
The figurine is heavy and made of bronze metal with good detail. It has been cold painted with a green colour which has worn away in places, showing a patinated bronze colour beneath. The lady is stood on a round ball above a shaped shell like base. The figure is holding the lamp above her head with the electric cable running into the base and vertically up her back to the lamp fitting above. A coloured spherical glass shade firmly sits in the dished support.
The light is currently fitted with a small bayonet fitting, the whole electrical fitting having been PAT tested for safety compliance in the UK. The fitting could easily be modified to suit the electricity supply of the country where it might be used .
This piece is typical of the Art Deco aesthetic, with the sleek lines of the nude girl figure holding the globe light above.
The lamp is in full working order.
This is a substantial heavy piece weighing about 2.5Kg unpacked.
