Their weight and flat square bases make them particularly well suited for use as decorative bookends, while they are equally attractive displayed as standalone sculptures.

Each piece features four serene faces beneath an elaborately detailed tiered architectural headdress. The warm reddish-brown finish is accented with distressed cream and touches of gold, highlighting the intricate relief work and giving the pieces an appealing aged appearance.

The design appears influenced by Khmer/Cambodian temple imagery and Bayon-style four-faced sculptures. Exact maker and country of manufacture are unknown, so no specific attribution is being made.

A distinctive decorative pair for a bookshelf, library, console or mantel, particularly suited to Asian-inspired, global, eclectic or collected interiors.
