Know before you buy
While the exact weight isn't specified, travertine is a dense, natural stone, making these substantial enough to support standard hardcovers and novels. Their 5-inch height provides a stable base for most shelf displays.
Travertine is naturally porous, which gives it that signature rustic texture. To clean, simply wipe them down with a soft, dry cloth; avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or acidic liquids that could stain or etch the stone surface.
Travertine is a hard material, so it is always a good idea to place a small felt pad or a thin adhesive bumper on the bottom of each bookend if you are concerned about potential scratches on delicate wood surfaces.
Because travertine is a natural stone, each piece will feature unique veining, color variations, and surface pits. This means your set will have a one-of-a-kind look, though they are curated to complement each other as a pair.
Yes, their sculptural floral design makes them excellent decorative accents for a console table, mantel, or desk even when not actively holding books.
