ABOUT PRODUCTID 6452
This pair of bookends from the 1920s and 1930s exemplifies German Art Deco craftsmanship. Made from solid, dark brown granite with an almost black hue, they feature subtle mineral veining in shades of brown and grey. The highly polished finish gives a mirror-like gloss, while the stepped, triangular profile with sharp lines and right angles reflects the geometric ethos of the era. Balanced proportions emphasize the architectural silhouette: a substantial rectangular base supports both a vertical and diagonal block, creating a stable, sculptural composition. The precision of execution, with even, smooth edges and no visible joints, attests to their creation from a single block of stone. Original manufacturer labels are preserved on the underside. Condition: excellent, with no damage or signs of wear. These bookends evoke the spirit of the 1920s – a period marked by faith in progress, modernity, and clarity of form. Their geometric shape emerges like a fragment of modernist architecture, while the weight of granite seems to whisper of the durability and seriousness of the knowledge they are meant to guard. The glossy, sleek surface reflects light, recalling the interiors of the era—full of contrast, simplicity, and measured elegance. Each edge is a reminder of the discipline of form that responded to the ornamentation of previous decades. The bookends can be paired with walnut or mahogany shelving, where their dark granite will accentuate the wood's refinement. They work well in both classic libraries and contemporary minimalist spaces, forming a strong visual anchor for collections of art books or literature. They could be combined with chrome details or glass to emphasize their modernist roots, or placed against light-colored walls for a striking contrast that highlights their architectural
