A pair of figurative bookends representing two stylised ducks, made of glazed ceramic. Their slender and streamlined silhouette evokes a mid-century aesthetic from the 50s and 60s, making them very decorative. The glaze features a deep petrol blue with iridescent turquoise highlights, subtly enhanced by a golden patina that catches the light and accentuates the curves of the object. This effect adds depth and a very warm charm to the whole, with slight variations depending on the angle of view. Each duck is designed to be placed on either side of a row of books: their stable base and slightly tilted posture allow them to hold the books while providing a strong decorative touch. They can also be repurposed as independent decorative objects on a shelf, sideboard, or desk. đ An object that is both functional and decorative, ideal for a library, a vintage interior, or a retro design atmosphere.
