Greyhound bookend

Antique Greyhound foot bookend repair

Here’s a beautiful antique greyhound bookend a customer brought in for restoration. The piece had suffered the all-too-common fate of broken front feet — a frequent issue we see with these classic greyhound figures.

We carefully reattached the damaged sections and then recast the missing feet to perfectly match the original design. The result is a strong, seamless repair that brings the piece back to its former glory and prepares it for plating or display.

Greyhound bookends are among our most requested projects, and the legs are almost always the weak point. It’s rewarding to see them restored and ready for a new life.

Here are a few photos of the repair process:
