Up for sale is a beautiful, authentic pair of vintage Art Deco style deer/stag bookends. Featuring beautifully detailed resting stags with prominent antlers, mounted on sleek, minimalist wood-veneered bases that perfectly bridge late Art Deco and Mid-Century Modern aesthetics.Because these were artisanally hand-cast, they carry a wonderful unique character, as evidenced by their slightly different individual weights.STUNNING VINTAGE PATINAThe figures are made of classic European spelter (regula) and feature an elegant gold-toned gilt finish. Over the decades, gentle handling has worn down the finish on high points, beautifully revealing the silver-toned base metal underneath. This gives the set an incredible, honest antique look that cannot be replicated.
They sit between late Art Deco and mid-century. The bases are clean. The figures are solid. The wear is the wear of age, not damage. They belong on a shelf in a mid-century modern room, a dark academia library, an Art Deco or Hollywood Regency interior, or a modern lodge. The gold against the dark wood does the rest.
