AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Pair of Early 20th-Century Wooden Screw-Clamp Bookends, 1920s

A characterful pair of traditional wooden screw clamps whose strong upright form makes them especially effective as functional bookends. The combination of warm aged wood, exposed screw mechanisms and architectural C-shaped profiles gives the pair a distinctive workshop character suited to bookshelves, libraries and interiors combining antique and industrial elements.

Originally conceived as practical workshop tools, the two pieces now work particularly well as book supports. Their substantial vertical frames create a clear visual boundary for books, while the original screw construction provides sculptural interest from either side.

The surfaces display an established patina, tool marks and traces of long practical use that complement their utilitarian character. The screw assemblies and wooden structures remain visually complete. It will be shipped exactly as shown in the photographs, so please examine all images carefully.

Dimensions of each piece: approximately H 38 cm x W 21 cm x D 3.5 cm.
