Known as K&O, the company specialized in high-quality Art Nouveau or Art Deco style decorative metal items. These beautiful bookends are spelter metal I think. The bookends feature a lion standing on a mountain (rocks). I believe they have their original paint, right down to the red in the lion's mounths! You can tell these were high quality; the detail of the lion with his teeth, mane, ribs, and the rock are very fine. They have great patina. The lion is painted a brownish color and the mountain is a bronzy gold. They are stamped KO & Co. on the back. They are hollow, but heavy. I believe the lion is somewhat rare, as I've not been able to find many of these on the market. These are so elegant and would enhance any book collection or make a very nice unique gift for the book or lion lover. See less
