Spectacular pair of hand-carved Art Deco multi-stone & jadeite bookends. Each bookend features a large, hand-carved hardstone parrot in warm shades of yellow, olive green, and a flush of coral near the crest. The parrots are incredibly detailed with inset glass eyes and rest atop stepped alabaster and travertine blocks on a marble base.
The simulated planter box bases are adorned with delicate, multi-stone floral arrangements made of carved agate and jade petals wired together in classic vintage fashion. The architectural, stepped Art Deco bases are constructed from beautiful, veined cream alabaster, accented by multi-colored banded marble and travertine blocks, all anchored firmly on sleek, polished black marble plinths.
No maker's marks. Each measures 7.25"W x 3.25" Deep x 11.25"H.
