A pair of contemporary decorative bookends featuring realistically modelled walruses. The walrus figures are constructed from a cast composite material with a dark brown textured finish, imitating the appearance of carved wood or soapstone. The tusks are made from a contrasting cream-coloured resin to simulate ivory. Each figure is mounted on a shaped, dark-stained wooden plinth with a bevelled edge. The figures are rendered in a characteristic reclining pose with raised heads and detailed skin folds. While the style is consistent with the work of Wolf Originals, no maker’s marks, factory stamps, or signatures are visible on the items.
Width of wooden base: 14 cm.
