Lovely pair of 1930s Cornell University Foundy (Ithaca NY) Art Deco Ram’s Head Bookends. These pieces are classy, regal and totally embody the simple yet distinctive lines of the Art Deco period. Made of cast metal and coated with a brass finish. Measurements for each bookend. They are signed on various sides Cornell and C in a circle. Nice condition and presentation given the age and years of possible movement. These vintage/almost antique 80-90 year old have some expected age & movement wear to include but not limited to: some slight felt bottom loss; metal scuffs; metal coating (finish) loss; metal coating patina; some small scratches of the top layer with inner layers (gray) exposed, etc. Please see all photos and reach out if you have any questions PRIOR to purchasing. About the Cornell University Foundry. The Foundry is a sculpture studio and workshop for fine arts students, situated adjacent to Milstein Hall along the edge of Fall Creek Gorge. The large, uninterrupted interior space, evenly lit by tall windows on all four sides, provides a perfect space for sculptors. Students can also work outdoors, overlooking the gorge. The building was completed in the 1860s and was originally used as a blacksmith shop. By 1890, it was in use as part of the Sibley School of Mechanical Engineering. In the 1960s, the sculpture program was moved from the basement of Tjaden Hall to The Foundry, and later a bronze-casting facility was established behind it.
