About the Item

A rare and unusual pair of French Art Deco cubist hare bookends mounted on stepped marble bases attributed to Verrerie Legras and marked and dating from around 1920. The silver-plated hares stand raised resting on their back legs with their front paws held in a ‘boxing’ pose and with their ears raised. The hares are well detailed and are mounted on a stepped marble base combining black veined marble with white veined marble edging to the sides. The hares are both marked Legras Editeur Made in France. Period French style at its best and a wonderful display item. Provenance: Acquired from the UK Art Market In good condition with wear and minor chipping to the marble bases associated with age and use.
