This stylish and very finely carved pair of beautiful dense hardwood bookends are fully signed by the artist M.D.Lampuh who worked from the Mas village on the island of Bali. This location is very well known for this type of fine workmanship. These pieces are dated 1927. They are superbly carved in the form of a seated Indonesian young man and the matching piece is a young lady. These useful pieces could be displayed as two decorative figures or for their correct purpose would look superb on a desk with a row of leather bound books between them.
These book supports are larger than normal and could be used with larger sized books as shown in the photographs. In very good condition.
