Antique pair of cast iron lion bookends with a bronzed finish dating to the 1920s Art Deco period. These classic figural bookends feature detailed standing lions on a rocky base and were designed to resemble bronze sculptures popular in libraries and studies of the era. Heavy solid cast iron construction with a beautiful aged patina that highlights the sculptural details of the lions. Each bookend measures approximately 4.5 inches tall (see photos with ruler). Both pieces are in good antique condition with normal wear consistent with age, including finish wear and patina. Please review all photos carefully for condition details. A great decorative and functional set for a library, office, bookshelf, or vintage décor collection.
