Armor Bronze Polychrome Bookends

Marked "A. Ner*inson". Native American Chief Bust. Armor Bronze, formerly The National Metalizing Company, began in 1910 in New York and New Jersey. Changing the name to Armor bronze about 1920, they produced art objects, statuary, and lamps using a polychrome coloring process with its roots in ancient Egyptian and Chinese methods. They sometimes employed hand-etched sgraffito on their pieces. The company changed location in the 1930's to Massachusetts. It stopped producing in the late 1940s.
