Deco Howdah Elephant Bookends – Aronson 1923

A nice collectable pair of art deco howdah elephant bookends in the rare multi-coloured finish by Aronson (formerly Art Metal Works) and then later the Ronson Company – USA 1923

These are small bookends for small books or decorative effect on the bookshelf in the library or the bedroom – one of our regular customer’s coined the phrase bedroom bookends and we got it.

Good condition with some bright colouring albeit with some loss of the blue enamel on the base likely from over cleaning – always wipe elephants gently.

Deco era bookends for the bedroom – something showy and different

Deco Dancing Lady Bookends – Armor Bronze – 1920’s

Armor Bronze operated out of 5th Avenue New York during the 1920’s.

The general style for of this bookend was popular and copied by a number of makers. However, most if not all were not so charmingly crafted and had hollow or flat backs whilst this example is a full three-dimensional casting. It is in a class of its own – original from the period so some age patina … authentic.

The Deco Lady is the essence of what one imagines of the era, bobbed hair, sleek boyish body with the taught attributes of the professional dancer.

Medium in size being 18cm wide and 12 cm high each weighing 1.4kg so deceivingly hefty. Not the girl!

Probably the best example of the Art Deco Dancing Lady

SO SORRY SOLD
