~~~ Listing covers a pair of lovely classical bust bookends ~~~

Gorgeous style for displaying your favorite books.
I enjoy using bookends for displaying leather spines, antiquarian books and
my favorite book sets (note- listing does not include the books in photos)

Bookends have a hard, smooth finish with slight gloss, and lots of fine detail, as shown
in photos. I posted photos of each angle to help with your assessment.
These have are designed with a blend of different shades of light cover to show off
some of details. Some areas are darker than others, but colors range between
white and ivory to a very light brown. photos show the color transitionsThese are vintage bookends; I am unsure of the medium. Based on weight and feel, I believe they
are either pottery or porcelain.

These both have the oval shapedAlexander Backer Company (brand of ABCO) imprint on reverse / flat side.

Bottom of each base is covered with black felt padding to protect surfaces.

Male bust is near 10\" at heighest point; female measures about 1/3\" shorter

Base of each is oblong and measures right at 3-1/4\" X 4-3/8\"

Weight is just shy of 3 pounds each

I see no chips or breaks and only a few, very light surface scratches if you
examine real closely. Nothing severe or obvious. I believe the shades of
color are intentional and part of the design. However, I did not purchase
these new. Aging process may have darkened some of the areas.
Regardless, I like them just the way they are and believe you will too.
