Description: Vintage Pair of ONYX or MARBLE Natural Stone Hand Carved FIGURAL LION Book Ends - They Stand at 6" Tall - One weighs 3.3 lbs., the other one comes in at 3.1 lbs. Originally purchased these from an estate collection of all sorts of handcrafted South & Native American items. I have had them several years now, but after a move I no longer have the shelf I needed them for, so offering them up. They are hand carved stone, not sure if it is marble or onyx.....but it is a natural, heavy stone. I'm guessing they are from the 1970's period as this type of carving was really popular then, and I recall many of the items in that sale were collected from travels of the 1960's-1970's. But how do you determine age of stone..... I guess they are actually ancient and probably knew a few dinosaurs :) Condition: Noted one "claw" fractured partially off at a fault line in the stone (see blown-up pic of). Otherwise sort of "soft" corners as expected from a chiseled stone. See photos, they display and look great. Natural faults are expected in this natural material. Shipping: USPS with insurance and tracking; heavy items double boxed for safe shipping. Trying not to be redundant - Please refer to Policy Section for a full text review of my store business policies. Thanks for Looking!
