Description from the seller

Brass bookends – Pair of Thinkers
Description:
Beautiful pair of brass bookends depicting two male figures seated in a meditative pose, inspired by the famous "The Thinker" posture. The two figures are presented facing each other and rest on solid rectangular bases.
The sculptures feature a lovely antique patina in golden and brown tones, as well as some signs of wear and aging that attest to their use and give them a lot of character. Their decorative style fits just as well in a classic library as in a vintage or eclectic interior.
This is a decorative pair particularly interesting for enthusiasts of brass objects, figurative sculptures, and library decoration.

Width: 7 cm
Depth: 5 cm
