Pair of vintage brass ship bell bookends in very good vintage condition. Mid century in style, each features a solid brass bell mounted to a wooden L-shaped base with brass corner brackets and a braided rope pull. The bells ring clearly when sounded and make a great nautical accent.
The wood has a rich grain and smooth finish. Felt pads have been added underneath to protect surfaces. The brass shows light natural patina inside the bells, adding to the character.
Measurements (each bookend):
Base: 17cm length x 10cm width x 15.5cm height
Bell height: 8cm
Bell diameter: 7.5cm
Condition:
Very good vintage condition. Minor surface wear and light patina consistent with age. Rope pulls intact.
Ideal for coastal or maritime decor, study or library shelves, or as a gift for a sailing or nautical enthusiast.
