Know before you buy
The Arkis Bookend is sold as a complete set of three pieces, featuring small, medium, and large sizes.
Because marble is a natural material, each piece features unique striations and veining patterns. You can expect slight variations in texture and color, which makes every set one-of-a-kind.
Yes, the solid marble construction provides significant weight and stability. The largest piece is particularly well-suited for supporting larger volumes on a shelf or credenza.
No, these are freestanding sculptural pieces. You can simply place them on any flat surface to organize your books or display them as standalone decor.
To maintain the finish, wipe the marble with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or acidic cleaners, as these can etch or dull the natural stone surface.
