Pair of Metal Clad Art Deco Bookends by Ronson Art Metal Works
$325per set
About
Fabulous pair of metal clad Art Deco bookends by Ronson Art Metal Works, circa 1930s. The bookends depict two Chinese youngsters, beautifully sculpted; the boy is patiently observing while the girl is quietly absorbed by what she reads.
This particular Ronson version is all the more rare because it is polychrome -- hand enameled with red, white, purple, turquoise and black along with the old gold and bronze electroplated metallic finishes.
Ronson's Art Metal Works, founded by Louis Aronson in the 1800s, was a leader and pioneer in the manufacture of fine decorative metal wares into the 1930s producing a diverse selection of beautifully designed metal bookends, cigarette lighters, hood ornaments, figurines, lamps, and much more. #1071.
