About the Item
Pair of French Art Deco BISON bookends made of ebony and horn from the 1920s.
The objects have a very cubist design, with the wedge-shaped base made of dark walnut wood protruding upwards and the object leaning against it in a slightly stooped attack position.
The bulls carved from ebony are straight and parallel to the base.
The tail and forehead have a ribbed texture, but otherwise the bull is rather smooth.
The horns are made of real horn and form a perfect contrast to the dark animal.
Overall, the bookends are very impressive and extremely decorative.
Both objects are signed “dankarner, Paris” by hand on the base.
A small piece is missing from one horn, which can be replaced at an additional cost.
(It must be re-carved by hand), but we believe that this does not detract from the beauty of the antique bookends.

French Art Deco Bronze Panther on Marble Base with Jade Trim, signed LEDUC 1910s
Located in Salzburg, AT
French Art Deco bronze panther on marble base with jade trim, signed by hand, LEDUC
This object is a very rare depiction of a panther playing with a ball.
The seated animal is in an attacking position, teeth bared, ears flattened, and paw extended to strike the ball.
The situation is skillfully captured, and the overall arrangement of materials and colors is harmonious.
The jade edging is interrupted at the front and back by black stripes in marble, and the panther has a very beautiful patina. The jade setting has different tones ranging from light to slightly richer.
There are also white inclusions in the stone, but no chipped corners or edges.
