Description from the seller

Pair of Art Deco bookends, dating from the 1930s to 1940s.

These pieces are expertly crafted from solid, high-quality black marble combined with onyx marble, which features a complex natural layered pattern. This combination yields a strong contrast. The design has a minimalist, geometric form from the Art Deco period, with a geometric, architectural silhouette and sharp, clean lines.

Heavy and durable, these bookends are not only elegant decorative objects but also highly functional for supporting library volumes.

Reasonable vintage condition, please view all the photos to make an informed decision. There are a few chips.
