Description
These classic recumbent lion bookends by House Parts, Inc. bring a refined architectural presence to a shelf or desk. Cast in a substantial stone-composite material with an ivory alabaster finish, the pair is modeled after 19th-century Grand Tour marble lions traditionally found in English libraries and Regency interiors.
Each lion rests atop a molded plinth accented with a decorative rosette medallion. The scale is ideal for styling bookshelves, mantels, or a study, and they function equally well as decorative sculptures or working bookends.
A favorite of designers for traditional, classical, and transitional interiors.
