Unusual Pair of Cast Metal Bookends w/Monkeys in Books

Item Details

Description

Pair of 2 Cast Metal Monkey Book, Bookshelf, Bookends. This is a pair of two metal bookends. Each bookend portrays two monkeys crouching within the pages of an open book, hunched over as if reading the words below them. The brown metal has a lovely patina on it. One bookend has more wear and is more copper-toned than the other. These precocious primates would make for a charming and rather unique addition to a small collection of books.

Dimensions are 4 in h x 3.75 in w x 3.75 in d. Condition is good. There is some wear to the metal. One bookend has significantly more wear than the other. Please call or email for a detailed condition report.
