    I found these owls some time ago. Simple, cast iron, bookends. Haven't been able to find any information about them. Does anyone recognize the style?

      Maybe Brutalist style?
    3. Janes, 11 years ago
      Thanks. I wasn't familiar with Brutalist. A good place to start.

      Are you sure they are bookends? They look like something used in front of a Fireplace...andirons maybe, which would explain their state. RER(BOB)
    6. Janes, 11 years ago
      No. They are bookends, not andirons. The photo doesn't show the colors much. Lot's of different colors, green, copper, browns, and black.

      Interesting, I wonder how many people would scratch up a book shelf using cast iron book ends.
    8. Janes, 11 years ago
      They are pretty smooth, but they are heavy.
