Know before you buy
Yes, because they are crafted from solid brass, these bookends provide significant weight and stability to keep even large volumes securely in place.
As with all natural solid brass, the finish may develop a subtle patina over time depending on your home's humidity and handling. You can maintain the original golden luster with a gentle brass polish if you prefer a bright, reflective look.
The base is designed to be sturdy and stable; however, if you are placing them on delicate surfaces like polished wood or glass, we recommend adding small felt pads to ensure complete protection against scratching.
Absolutely. Their sculptural, geometric design makes them excellent as standalone accents on a console table, mantel, or desk, even when not actively supporting books.
Each bookend measures 5 inches in width and 12.7 inches in depth, providing a substantial base that ensures they remain upright and functional.
