A striking pair of carved dark wood bookends — each bearing a boldly rendered figure in high relief, in the African folk art tradition. The carving is confident and expressive, the dark finish giving them real presence on a shelf. Substantial and well-made, a classic of mid-20th century decorative carving.
Size: Approx. 6" H x 3" W each
