Striking and sculptural, this rare pair of 1971 bookends by W. Macowski captures the bold elegance of mid-century modern design. Cast in a brushed metal finish and mounted on sleek black bases, each bookend features a sweeping, architectural form with an arched cutout—evoking the brutalist and space-age aesthetic of the early 1970s.

These bookends were produced by Ketcham & McDougall, Inc. and are signed and dated on the back: © W. Macowski 1971. Ideal for adding a statement to any shelf, they blend form and function seamlessly.

Whether you're a collector of modernist decor or simply looking to elevate your space, these are standout pieces of vintage design.
