About the Item

French Art Deco Silver-Plated Metal Bookends with Gargoyles, c. 1930s A stunning pair of French Art Deco bookends crafted from silver-plated metal, depicting stylized mythological creatures inspired by classical and medieval iconography. The sculptural figures, with their elongated bodies, flowing curves, and finely detailed manes, exemplify the refined craftsmanship and bold decorative language characteristic of the Art Deco period. Each bookend is mounted on a solid green marble base, providing visual contrast and structural stability. The arched forms and stepped geometric elements reflect the balance between elegance and monumentality so typical of French decorative arts of the 1930s
