Mid-Century Solid Brass Grape Cluster Bookends - Pair

5 1/2”H x 5 1/2 W x 2 1/4”D (each)

Sculptural in presence and rich in organic detail, this vintage pair of solid brass bookends brings an expressive, botanical elegance to library shelving or tabletop displays. Cast in the form of stylized grape clusters, each piece features heavy, dimensional spheres capped by intricately veined leaf collars and arched stem caps. The brass exhibits a warm, antiqued patina with natural oxidation in the deep relief, highlighting every hand-finished contour. Heavy enough to anchor a substantial collection of volumes, these bookends bridge classical motifs with mid-century Hollywood Regency glamor.

"Excellent vintage condition with a rich, authentic aged patina. Shows minor surface wear and subtle oxidation in the recessed areas, consistent with age and casting origin."
