Travertine Bookend - Sculpture Attributed to Fratelli Mannelli
About the Item
Imagine the sleek, geometric lines of the triangular travertine bookend, the natural stone, with its subtle, earthy hues and characteristic pitted texture, understated elegance. Attributed to the renowned Fratelli Mannelli for Raymor, this piece embodies the zenith of mid-century Italian design.
The minimalist shape speaks to a quiet sophistication, almost like a study in balance and proportion, while the raw beauty of travertine adds an organic warmth that contrasts with the cool geometry of the form. It’s not just a bookend; it’s a sculptural object that elevates its environment. Displayed on a sleek, modern shelf, it quietly evokes a sense of refined taste, bringing a bit of Italian design heritage into a contemporary space.
You can imagine it in a living room, a study, or an entryway—drawing admiration not for its boldness, but for the restraint and quiet refinement that characterize the best of mid-century modern design. It's the kind of piece that gets better with age, its natural textures and slight imperfections only enhancing its charm. Truly a piece of art.
