These exquisite pieces feature graceful arched necks and elegantly swept-back wings, making them an exceptional addition to any collection or bookshelf.

Crafted from patinated brass, known in French as fonte d'art, these bookends represent the best of decorative art casting.

In terms of condition, this pair has withstood the test of time, retaining its integrity over roughly ninety years. The patina is beautifully preserved and evenly mellowed, while the black lacquer bases reveal small, minor, age-appropriate wear (verdigris; we have not cleaned) along their brass insert edges, adding character.

Both birds are securely mounted and ready for display. We offer them to you in the same well-cared-for condition in which they were received, cleaned, and maintained without any unnecessary restoration.

These French Art Deco swan bookends from around 1930 are not just functional but also serve as stunning decorative pieces. Whether adorning a bookshelf or gracing a mantel or console, they will enhance any environment with their timeless charm and sophistication. Don't miss the opportunity to own this exquisite pair.
