    I found these today at a estate sale today. I am hoping they might be BH (Bradley Hubbard) book ends because of the H on one of the stickers on the bottom?
    If not BH can anyone tell me who made these?
    They are well made, large (11" x 7"), made of bronze (I think) & heavy
    Thank you!

    They're probably just art deco bookends

    I'm not even sure where you are seeing a BH sticker. The sticker is probably from the estate...nothing to do with the maker

    Bradley Hubbard, 1852-1940, well before bar codes came along.

    I think the stickers were put on by store not manufacturer?

    They are cool either way! Possibly Barye inspired?

    I thought it was Antoine - is either who you meant when you said possibly Barye inspired?
