A Pair of Bookends Made in the Form of Antique Leather Bound Books.

A most pleasing pair of desk bookends, hand made in wood and leather and beautifully crafted. Each bookend looks like a pair of antique leather bound books.

These highly decorative pieces would have been made to special order by a traditional bookbinder. They are made from wood in the form of antique books each covered in different coloured tan hides and hand finished with heated bronze patterned wheels and hand tools to produce each book design and title in plain and gilt tooling. Each one has a brass base plate which is designed to sit under the books on display giving greater stability

These decorative bookends are English and date to circa 1920. They would be ideal for a desktop or shelf display and would look perfect with a small collection of antique books. They are in good original condition with some age related marks to the leather.

Sizes of each book end;

Height 18.5cm x width 12.5cm including the brass plates x depth 12cm

Robert Belcher Antiques was established in 1984 and is a high-quality retailer of interesting, rare antiques and decorative objects. After forty years of shop keeping and maintaining beautiful showrooms, which have been regularly open six days a week, Robert and Wendy have now taken a slightly different approach to their business. Having sold their retail premises, the antique business is now fully online. The picture framing service has ceased to operate because of moving online.

Customers can rest assured that the long-established dealership is continuing to run in an exceedingly professional way, selling genuine and high-quality items which are guaranteed to please the most discerning collector, decorator or homeowner.

All items will be personally hand packaged to a high standard. Small items are extensively wrapped using the best materials and are often double boxed. Items are then shipped with DHL or Royal Mail fully insured and often with next day delivery. Larger items would be personally delivered or sent with a specialist antique delivery firm, or for outside the U.K, a professional shipping company.

Please enjoy viewing their collection of rare and interesting pieces and have the assurance that Robert and Wendy will do their utmost to make sure your experience is exceptional, as has been recognised by many customers who have bought with confidence regularly over the years.
