Set of Bear and Bull Heavy Bookends - Brass & Marble
Dimensions: 2.75ʺW × 5ʺD × 7.5ʺH
This beautiful pair of bookends represents the iconic Wall Street bull and bear market, capturing the dynamic – and often volatile nature – of the stock market. Whether you work in finance or you simply love traditional decor, these heavy marble bookends are a great addition to any shelf. These pieces are made from brass and set on marble bases and are extremely sturdy
The bull and bear have become iconic symbols of the stock market, representing the opposing trends of rising and falling prices. The bull, which charges upward, signifies a market that is on the rise and characterized by optimism and investor confidence. The bear, which swipes downward, symbolizes a market in decline, marked by pessimism and caution. This symbolism dates back to the 18th century and has been widely adopted in financial contexts, making these bookends a nod to the history and dynamics of the financial markets.
Great gift!
