About the Item

All handcrafted, solid wooden blue collar workers bookends. If you or your friends have a house from the Arts & Crafts period than this unique pair could be the perfect gift. These hand carved, hard working men sculptures make great decoration on a desk or bookshelf. We believe this unique set is like an ode to the working man, who for centuries have been the backbone of many societies. The sculptor perfectly captured them whilst they are giving their all in order to get the job done, whatever that job was. They are extra decorative and appropriate as bookends (or book-stops), because they are both pushing with all their might to keep your books upright. Apart from stylish and meaningful, this unique pair is in superb condition and both have a wonderful patina. Mind you, our price for this Arts & Crafts pair includes perfect packing and also worldwide delivery from our store to your door in just 4 days. Maximum height x width x depth: 7.3 x 6.6 x 4.6 inches. We have a passion for the unique, for quality, for stylish yet practical and for craftsmanship of years gone by. Your purchases will be extremely well packaged and we look forward to serving you (again). You can shop all our 1000+ listings by pushing the button that reads 'View All From Seller'.
