Large Don Shoemaker for Señal Bookends in Solid Cocobolo

Creator: Don Shoemaker
Offered by: Hobbs Modern

Description
A pair of solid wood bookends by Mexican-American designer Don Shoemaker for his company, Señal. Rendered in highly figured cocobolo wood, a species of local tropical wood with a similar look and grain patter at brazilian rosewood, the bookends showcase a dynamic grain pattern and the natural beauty of the wood’s irregularities. Open up the bookend and there is a dramatic live edge showing the "heart wood" of the cocobolo tree. These are very large and heavy great for large books.

Retains manufacturer’s label on underside reading, “Designed by Don S. Shoemaker Produced by Señal S.A.”

Together they are 8.5 D x 9 H
