Vintage bookends in patinated cement, sculptures of entwined figures, s

Superb pair of patinated cement bookends, representing two stylised human figures, seated in an introspective and intertwined posture. Their sleek and organic shape evokes a modern sculpture, both soft and expressive. The patina in warm shades of ochre, beige, and brown gives them a mineral appearance reminiscent of ancient stone, while highlighting the volumes and curves of the body. Each piece features slight irregularities and roughness that enhance their artisanal and authentic character. At the intersection of decorative object and sculpture, these bookends add an artistic and poetic touch to a bookshelf, shelf, or console. These bookends exhibit imperfections related to their artisanal crafting. Weight 2kg.
