AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Pair of 2 bookends – Art Deco – marble and brass birds
Elegant pair of two Art Deco bookends, finished with a white marble base and each featuring two graceful birds in polished brass. The combination of nature stone and warm metal is typical of the Art Deco period (1920s–1930s) and provides a refined, stylish appearance.
The doves – symbol of peace and harmony – are sleek and stylized, which nicely matches the geometric base shapes of the marble pedestals. Thanks to their weight, the bookends offer not only a decorative but also a functional support.
