These solid glass bookends are very heavy and have stood up nobly for around 60 years
as my research dates production to around 1965.
The condition is very good.
No breaks, no chips, no marring, no repairs.
The surface is smooth. There is no discoloration in the glass.

Each horse bookend weighs 2 lbs- so the set is 4 lbs total ( 1.8 kg )
Each individual bookend's dimensions are:

7" long ( 17.78 cm )
3" wide ( 7.62 cm )
5" tall. ( 12.7 cm )
