Know before you buy
Yes, each pair weighs 4.0 lbs in total. The combination of the solid brass figures and the white marble base provides sufficient weight and friction to support standard-sized hardcovers and novels.
Yes, the bases are designed with a protective underside to ensure they do not scratch or damage delicate surfaces like wood shelves or glass desks.
Because they are handmade, there may be slight variations in the brass finish or the natural veining of the white marble. These subtle differences are part of the craftsmanship and ensure each pair is unique.
With a footprint of 4.5 inches wide by 3 inches deep, these bookends are compact enough for most standard shelves and desks. However, ensure your floating shelf is rated to support the 4.0 lb weight of the set plus the weight of your books.
Dust the brass figures with a soft, dry cloth to maintain their luster. For the marble base, wipe it down with a damp cloth and mild soap if needed, but avoid harsh chemicals or acidic cleaners that could etch the stone.
