About the Item
This charming pair of 20th-century cast iron tuxedo cat bookends captures the elegance and playfulness of these beloved felines. Heavy for their size, they provide excellent stability, making them not only stylish bookends but also highly functional doorstops. The pair features mirrored poses, adding a delightful sense of symmetry and character.
Each cat is finished in classic black and white tuxedo markings, with hand-painted details that have developed a lovely patina over time. There is minor paint loss, consistent with age.
Cast iron bookends and doorstops became popular in the early 20th century, prized for their durability and decorative appeal. Tuxedo cats, with their refined yet mischievous personalities, have long been a favorite subject in art and collectibles. Whether used to hold up a favorite set of books, prop open a door, or simply display as decorative objects, this pair brings playfullness and vintage charm to any space.
