Vintage 1920’s Bronze Bookend. I believe this bookend was made by the Marion Bronze Company (the hallmark on the back is very difficult to read). In a Marion Bronze catalog they stated: Our skilled craftsmen hand cast each piece into’Cerama-Stone’, a scientific exclusive formula which permits high fidelity reproduction. Each piece is then carefully prepared so that it can be encased in real bronze metal. Unlike most metal castings, which are hollow, the Marion Galvano Bronze method makes a solid reproduction of the proper weight for lifetime durability. Marion Bronze was the longest-lived company producing bronze-clad bookends. Features Japanese God Fukurokuju, the God of Happiness, Wealth and Longevity. Measures approximately 4″ high x 3.5″ wide x 2 depth. GOOD USED CONDITION WITH SOME WEAR FROM AGE AND USE. Has a few chips along edges on the back.
