These Bull & Bear Bookends are different than most choices. The animals have more "character." The bull has its tail twitched and high, its head down and charging. You can "feel" its muscles, they are well sculpted. The bear tends to be more passive. It peeks around the corner of the books it is guarding! The animals illustrate the place of the bull and bear in the market.
The 1-1/2 inch base is rough and made to look like rocks - it cannot be customized. The bull & bear and base are made of cast metal. The bookends weigh 5.2 lbs.
