This magnificent pair of authentic vintage 1998 decorative bookends beautifully captures a timeless Neoclassical and Hollywood Regency aesthetic. Masterfully crafted from a dense, heavy composite material, each bookend showcases a distinct architectural topiary obelisk form resting on a tiered plinth pedestal base. One cone displays a detailed hobnail studded motif accented with elegant scrolling bracket ears, while its matching partner showcases an ornate quilted trellis lattice design studded with tiny floral rosettes.
Both pieces are finished in a stunning, heavily antiqued burnished gold/champagne metallic gilt finish. Weighing a substantial 5 pounds total, this heavy-duty pair is structurally built to secure dense literary volumes while adding high-end French country, traditional library, or grandmillennial elegance to any shelf, mantle, or desk console.
