AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Elegant pair of sculptural Art Deco-style bookends, made in France in the 1930s and signed by the sculptor Tedd.
The bookends depict two reindeer facing each other, sculpted with refined anatomical details and a presence that is strong yet sober, fully embodying the Art Deco aesthetic.
Their poised yet dynamic postures give the pieces both visual impact and refined elegance.
They are crafted in patinated metal, characterized by warm brown tones, mounted on Portoro marble bases, notable for their rich golden veining, which enhances the contrast of materials and the overall sculptural impact.
A sophisticated, rare, collectible set, perfect for a library, a desk or as a striking decorative element in high-end Art Deco, modernist or contemporary interiors.
