    These bookends were picked up in spain in mid 1965 by my Great aunt. I thi k they are supposed to represent Jesus. As you can see they are similar in appearance but they are considerably different in size. Perhapnot carved at the same time or by different carvers. Or maybe that was the only two pieces of wood he had to carve. Anyone see anything similaer to these. Any info aould be appreciated.

      Possibly part of two sizes of bookends, these are wonderful. I believe 1965 sounds like the right date for these. Unfortunately there is little to no info on most wooden pieces
