These are cast bronze clad over copper. Beautiful castings with vivid detail. I love everything about these bookends, they are gorgeous! Please see condition report as they are flawed. They exhibit the quality castings done by Jennings Brothers, but their foundry mark is not present. These are heavy, weighing 3 pounds 9 ounces each. The Lion and the Mouse is a classic fable teaching that kindness is never wasted, showing how even the smallest creatures can make a big difference. See less
