Sale Antique Ronson Chinese Students Gilt Bookends LV Aronson 1920-30s: $150.00
A Pair in Individual Poses, of Cast Spelter "Chinese Students" Bookends, gilt/polychromed; c. 1920-25, US, L.V. Aronson Company (Ronson). Good to Very Good Condition.Nice reduction on a lovely estate collectible from a famous Dallas private library: a pair of cast bookends from the Twenties, a cute scholarly couple seated on books, everything cold-painted in a very nicely patinated color, including the aged - but not dulled- gold leaf bodies. Each bookend foot is 3-3/4" by 5-1/4", 6-1/4" tall. Each 8" figure rests differently on its mount to the base: the seated figure is the 6-1/4" height; the young man stands on tiptoe, peeking over his book at 9". Weight 4lbs. each. Each statuette is good condition overall. The metal has minor casting fatigue of age, not really visible. Felt bottom missing from seated figure, who also has a base/seat crack (again, hard to see, doesn't effect metal integrity). Some very minor paint loss. We have dusted but done no other work on surfaces, they were in a private space.Great library collectibles, bookends or objets. A thoughtful gift. Ships ground, domestic US only but please let us know if you're using a forwarding service, for packing. Please fulfill PayPal upon purchase. Questions welcomed.
