Pair of Carl Auböck Model #5535 Patinated Brass 'Rainbow' Bookends.
 
Designed in the 1950s, this incredibly refined and sculptural pair of bookends are executed in patinated and polished brass, curved to look like a rainbow.
 
Produced by Carl Auböck IV in the original Auböck Werkstätte in the 7th district of Vienna using the same exacting standards, high-quality materials, original molds and techniques of his legendary grandfather. Auböck's design career was long and varied, reaching its pinnacle of prestige at the Triennale di Milano in 1954, where he received four gold medals in recognition of his iconic work.
