Description from the seller
Jordan – Sheffield Collection – Pair of bookends depicting owls – Silvered metal and wood – England – 1960s–1970s
Description
Elegant pair of decorative bookends depicting stylized owls, from the Jordan Sheffield Collection, English production of the mid-twentieth century.
The two mirror-image subjects are made of silver-colored metal with embossed work that highlights the plumage and the essential lines of the figure. The sculptures are mounted on solid wood bases, equipped with protective felt on the bottom, a typical element of bookends intended for use on bookshelves and shelves.
The compact shape, the stability of the base, and the overall weight confirm the objects' original function as bookends, as well as decorative elements. The design combines figurative taste and formal sobriety, making them suitable for both classic environments and mid-century interiors.
On the bottom, the original label 'Jordan Sheffield Collection' is present, which allows for correct attribution of production.
