Know before you buy
Yes, because they are crafted from solid marble, these bookends provide significant weight and stability to keep even large, heavy volumes securely in place.
The underside of the marble is finished to be smooth, but we recommend placing a small felt pad or adhesive bumper on the bottom if you are concerned about protecting delicate wood surfaces.
Because these are hand-cut from natural white marble, you should expect slight variations in veining and tone. Each set is unique, which is part of the material's inherent beauty.
Simply dust the bookends with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or acidic substances, as these can etch or stain the natural stone surface.
Absolutely. Their fluted, column-like design makes them excellent as decorative pedestals for displaying small sculptures, candles, or other trinkets on a mantel or console table.
