Antique Soapstone Bookends. Pair. China.

Click the photo above for a larger version and more pictures

 

 

Although the age is unknown, these bookends can easily be from the early 1900s.  On the right piece there are some cracks but restoration has brought them back to a superior condition.   Look at the detail!!  Wonderful openwork!!!

 

Great paperweights or for display upright.  Would make a wonderful and thoughtful gift.
