Know before you buy
This item is sold as a single unit. If you need to support books on both ends of a shelf, you will need to purchase two.
While the glass has a solid feel, it is primarily designed for standard-sized books. For very large or heavy collections, you may want to pair it with a wall or another heavy object to ensure stability.
The polished glass is easy to maintain. Simply wipe it down with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove dust or fingerprints and restore its clarity.
The bookend features a smooth, polished finish, but we recommend placing it carefully on glass surfaces. If you are concerned about potential sliding or scratching, adding a small clear adhesive felt or silicone bumper to the base is a simple, discreet solution.
Yes, the geometric design is engineered to provide a stable base. It sits flush against your shelf and provides a reliable anchor for your books while serving as a sculptural accent.
