Know before you buy
Yes, these are crafted from durable metal, providing the weight and stability needed to support a standard row of hardcover books or reference materials on a shelf or desk.
These bookends do not feature a dedicated non-slip base. If you are placing them on a delicate surface like a polished wood desk, you may want to add small felt pads to the bottom to prevent scratching.
The set includes two bookends featuring the same figurative dog design, allowing for a symmetrical look on your bookshelf or mantel.
No assembly is required. These bookends arrive ready to use right out of the box.
The finish is an antiqued bronze, which offers a matte, slightly weathered appearance rather than a high-shine metallic look. This gives them a classic, timeless aesthetic that blends well with traditional decor.
