Beautiful vintage pair of hand-carved wooden horse head bookends featuring elongated necks, angular faces, carved eyes, ears, manes, and muzzle details. The warm wood tone and sculptural design give these a wonderful Mid-Century Modern, equestrian, folk art, and vintage library look.
Each horse has subtle differences in the carving, giving the pair the individual character you would expect from hand-finished pieces. They are substantial wooden bookends and look fantastic displayed with vintage or antique books.
Perfect for an equestrian lover, horse collector, home library, office, study, bookshelf, or vintage MCM-inspired décor. They would also make a wonderful Christmas or holiday gift for a horse lover.
