These are museum quality showcase works of art. This beautiful pair of artistic bookends were created at the Roman bronze Works foundry in 1922 by Gleb Dirujinsky. They are one of the best quality, high-end sets of bookends ever made.


Gleb W. Derujinski ((1888 - 1975) was a Russian-American sculptor began his artistic studies in St. Petersburg in 1896.
