About the Item

I am offering for sale a sculptural bookend made in Italy between the 70s and 80s, probably a gift made by, or coming from, an office of the Rome Airports, as is engraved in the article. This finely crafted vintage bookend is composed of two brass plates that form an "L", on the vertical plate shaped with multiple lobes is applied a splendid sculptural horse head depicted in a truly lifelike way. The bookend has been cleaned and polished with a specific product and is in good vintage condition. Reach out for any additional question.
