Bradley & Hubbard "Science & Study" Bookends with Bronzed Finishes (LEO Design)

 

If you thought this would be a kick-back summer, perhaps you'd better think again. "Science and Study" are the name of the game—at least according to the weary monks on these handsome bookends from the 1920's.  They were made by Bradley & Hubbard (Meriden, Connecticut) of cast iron and patinated with two bronze finishes: a traditional dark brown and a golden patina on the bas relief.  They are quite heavy—ideal for holding up those oversized illuminated manuscripts.  Or your physics, calculus and biology tomes.  Click on the photo above to learn more about them.
