• Details:  This is a great pair of bookends with an old couple, we're calling Grandma & Grandpa, sitting on their chairs.  These are whimsical and unique, one of a kind pieces from a hobbyist mold. Grandma is knitting and grandpa reading, they both wear glasses, wearing blue denim outfits, her with a shawl, his with a vest.  The colors are soft, and the level of detail is wonderful.  Signed and dated by the artist who painted them. There is felt on the bottom of each to protect your furniture.  A word of caution, these are VERY heavy, the shipping will be high, but totally worth it for this unique pair!  Great as a gift, for a study, library, office or for your favorite geriatrician!  Hey, Grandparent's Day is in September!!

We believe these Hobbyist Molds were made in a little shop called the Nifty Nook in West Plains, MO, (later became Studio 160 Ceramics), we give credit to Carol, the Nifty Nook's owner, she created these molds.  Clients would use her molds to make these, and many other items, and then paint and fire them right in the store's kiln.
