Vintage Metal Bookends with Hand-painted Flowers and Butterfly gift for home to be prized and handledI love the deep blue and stylized flowers hand painted on these c. mid 1960s metal bookends, which I thought rather complementary to the (presumed) Danish Modern vase I just listed, and which I found in the same place. As one can surely never have to many books, the same must go for bookends, and these feel sweetly cheerful in just the right way. 6" tall x 5 3 8" x 5 3 4". Good overall condition, with stains, paint loss and minor rust here and there,
