Walnut & Metal MCM Bookends

pair of awesome mid century bookends in Park Sherman USA Walnut and brassy gold metal. I am unsure if these are brass or plated metal. please see pics for condition. spots and scratches, some discoloration on the wood, and one long area at top inside where it looks like the cork lining at one point in time suffered some discoloration. edges of brass corners show wear, and there is a scratch on the front brass outer of one that I tried to get a close up of. these are older and show their use and age up close, but are still beautiful in real wood and brass. please note one still has velvet bottom but the other does not, and has some slight evidence of its removal. smoke-free and pet-free home. authentic vintage!
