These Ben Seibel brass stirrup bookends, designed for Jenfred Ware in the 1950s, are a striking example of mid-century sculptural design. Seibel, a prolific American designer known for his work in ceramics, furniture, and metalware, brought a distinctive biomorphic approach to everyday objects. His designs, often inspired by the organic modernism of artists like Jean Arp and Constantin Brancusi, merged fluid, abstract forms with functional purpose.

Cast in solid brass, these bookends feature Seibel’s signature openwork structure, creating a sense of lightness despite their weighty materiality. The patina developed over decades adds depth and character, making each pair unique. Highly collectible and sought after by design connoisseurs, these bookends exemplify the golden era of American industrial design, where everyday objects became sculptural statements. Now part of the Lemieux Et Cie Vintage Collection, they offer a perfect balance of form, history, and utility.
