Michel Karis

A superb and heavy pair of Art Deco bookends. These objects beautifully embody the elegance and geometric precision of the French Art Deco movement.

France, circa 1925 – 1935, dating to the peak of the Art Deco era.

Crafted from contrasting, high-quality stone:
. Green Elements: Luminous, translucent Green Onyx (often referred to as Albast in this period), featuring natural veining.
. Black Elements: Solid Black Marble (likely Belgian Noir), creating a striking contrast.
. Metal Detail: Each piece is adorned with a central, elongated, silver-toned metal appliqué. The motif is highly stylized, resembling a classic Art Deco skyscraper.

The pair is in good, antique condition, consistent with their age and use over the past century. Used with small signs of aging and minor blemishes. The onyx and marble show surface wear, minor patina, and small nicks/fleabites along the edges, which is normal for heavy, natural stone objects of this age. The metal appliqués retain their original finish. Please look at all pictures, they are part of the description.
