These stunning Art Deco bookends created by Walter Van Nessen for Chase in the 1930s are reminiscent of industrial architecture - the design would be perfect atop a skyscraper! Brass and copper are used next to each other throughout the pieces to create a great, consistent color contrast.
These bookends are solid metal and thus sturdy and heavy! Each is stamped on the bottom middle of the back with the centaur holding a bow that Chase uses.
They both measure around 107 x 146 ...x 70mm (W x H x D) and weigh about 2.5 pounds each. All measurements are APPROXIMATE!
Due to age and use there are some scuffs, scratches, and nicks in the metal which are to be expected, but the bookends are in great condition despite this! The metals have some tarnish and are in need of a good polish - or one can keep it to show their age! Pictures were taken at different angles, distances, and with different lighting to show all details properly.
Please view pictures closely for details.
