A rare pair of 1950s hand-carved Mexican bookends, each depicting a traditional “siesta” figure in resting posture. Expertly carved from solid wood and hand-painted in warm, earthy tones, these bookends feature a hidden storage compartment at the base — a clever mid-century detail that adds to their charm and rarity.
Beautifully aged with a worn patina, these sculptural pieces celebrate the artistry of Mexican folk carving and bring a soulful, collected touch to bookshelves, consoles, or styled vignettes.
