A charming pair of antique bookends stamped “REAL BRONZE” on the reverse with model number #9662, circa 1910โ1925. The number and marking are consistent with known production by the Judd Manufacturing Company of Wallingford, Connecticut, though attribution is based on comparable examples rather than a visible maker’s signature.
Each piece features a high-relief scene of a Victorian couple โ a young woman in a bonnet and flowing dress with a tassel bag, and a gentleman in a top hat and long coat โ seated on a garden bench beneath a floral arbor. The pair are mirror images of one another as traditional bookend sets require.
