Elevate your bookshelf or desk with this stunning, heavy pair of vintage mid-century cast brass lion bookends, expertly modeled after the monumental Neoclassical marble masterpieces by legendary Italian sculptor Antonio Canova (1757–1822). Each bookend features a beautiful, crisp raised-relief inscription reading: "ANTONIO CANOVA 1757 - 1822" across the side of the base. Crafted from cast brass (or bronze) with an incredible, unpolished deep gold-and-brown aged patina, these heavy-duty pieces are perfect for holding up substantial novels, art volumes, or serving as striking standalone Hollywood Regency office accents.

These are preowned vintage items. Please review all photos carefully for condition and detail, as they are considered part of the description.
