The Ionic column is one of the most graceful forms in classical architecture, recognised by the scrolled volutes at its capital and the fine fluting along its shaft. These bookends bring that heritage to the bookshelf, with each column carved from natural marble in warm rose and blush tones and crowned with a polished cream sphere.
Used as a pair, they hold a row of books firmly upright on a bookshelf, desk, console or mantel, and they look just as striking displayed on their own as small sculptures. The soft pink stone pairs beautifully with brass, cream linen, dark wood and leather-bound books, and suits classic, Mediterranean and contemporary interiors alike.
They make a refined gift for readers, students of architecture and anyone furnishing a study or library corner.
Because each piece is cut from natural marble, the veining, tone and markings vary, so every pair is unique. Place felt pads underneath to protect delicate surfaces, wipe with a soft, dry cloth and avoid acidic or abrasive cleaners.
