Unusual and rare great pair of early 20thC Arts & Crafts terracotta imp bookends.
By the Stonehouse Brick & Tile Co in Gloucestershire.
These were made by the men as decorative "fun" items at the weekends.
Approx 6.25" high.
An excellent article about the brickworks, which also includes an image of these decorative imps can be found at (pages 30/31):
