Pair of 2 Small Structural I-Beam Gold Bronze Bookends by Henry Wilson

About the Item

Pair of 2 Small Fin Bronze Bookends by Henry Wilson Dimensions: W 8 x D 6 x H 13 cm Materials: Bronze Fin bookends come in two sizes. Each is made, finished, and polished in Sydney, Australia, using sand-casted gunmetal bronze. Their weight and size can support the heftiest of editions. Fins are used in casting to strengthen shapes and help brace corners. The fin imprints the front and back of the casting, further refining the amount of material required. The gentle taper to the face and base of your bookend hints at how it’s made. Fin bookends are manufactured in small batches, so slight variations will occur from piece to piece. Production marks may include slight pour ripples or surface pitting. They will arrive with a bright finish but will oxidize and darken over time to reveal a distinctive patina. Simply use a metal polish to restore a like-new finish. Dimensions small: mm. 60 x 80 x 130 H Also available in large 75 x 117 x 156 H Henry Wilson's work combines rational, democratic utility with an element of sculptural expression. Our products have clear form and function, but it’s important that they also have feeling. We are interested in the awkward beauty that comes from something made by hand. We would like to explore how imperfection can be introduced into an industrial process to make something at a scale that retains a sense of individual charm.
