Unique pair of art deco style bookends

A rare pair of wooden bookends featuring engraved copper panels with graph-like compositions dated 1925 and 1960.
Combining the warmth of solid wood with the precision of scientific engraving, these objects blur the boundary between functional design, industrial history and abstract art.
 
The finely engraved grids and mysterious graphic curves suggest an origin in engineering, architecture or scientific visualization, while their elegant architectural form places them firmly within the spirit of early modernist design.
Whether their imagery records historical measurements or serves as an artistic interpretation of data, the pair possesses an understated intellectual beauty that invites curiosity.
 
Perfect for collectors of industrial design, scientific instruments and modernist interiors, these uncommon bookends transform an everyday object into a conversation piece.
