Set Of Art Deco Bookends, Harlequin, Pierott and Columbine

These are a set of bookends that I got from auction in England very recently. Pierott and Columbine, bookends are thought to be German with French taste. I am not stuck on this attribution.

As to Pierott and Columbine I prefer the story in the Dumas' fairy tale.Pierrot is discovered as half-frozen baby (accounting for the white face) by a poor-but-honest woodcutter and his wife. Miraculously grown up in the course of a month, Pierrot finds his way to the Court of the King of Bohemia. (The real kingdom of Bohemia was incorporated into the Austrian Empire some centuries ago, and now forms the core of the Czech Republic.) Pierrot encounters the hatred of the King's Chief Minister, Renardino, and pines for the heart of the King's daughter, Columbine. Renardino attempts to extirpate Pierrot, but fails repeatedly due to Pierrot's cleverness. Ultimately, Pierrot saves the Kingdom from foreign invaders, and saves Columbine from marriage to a Barbarian prince so that she can marry her true love, who turns out not to be Pierrot. Pierrot is consoled however, when he meets the fairy-queen, who assures him that his true role in life is entertaining children. The book ends with happiness restored in Bohemia, and Pierrot embarking upon his theatrical career.
