An unusual set of 60 year old bookends
with charming Airedale Terriers on their throne.

This whimsical set of bookends was made by the Ornawood Company.
Master carvers made their molds. This explains the fine detail.

Pressed wood and resin were used to make
decorative pieces during the 1940s when the war
effort limited the availability of metal for frivolous items.

The photo above shows minor damage on the lower right corner.
The original metal bases are intact without felt.
