These extraordinary French antique brass bookends, crafted in the early 1900s, are a testament to exquisite artistry. Unlike the inferior Indian replicas that emerged in later years, these bookends display intricate gothic embellishments on their walls, crowned by a bountiful bowl of ripe fruit. Notably, the centerpiece of this book-supporting marvel is a magnificent pair of winged gryphons. These mythical creatures symbolize power and wisdom, their presence elevating the significance of these bookends to new heights. Gracing each side at the base of the walls, these gryphons add a touch of enchantment to these already astonishing pieces. Immaculately maintained, they serve as a majestic centerpiece in both contemporary and classical libraries. Complementing their aesthetic appeal, these bookends can also lend their sturdy support to essential paperwork or cherished cookbooks as a versatile addition to any workspace or kitchen.
