About the Item
This striking pair of sculptural marble bookends showcases the elegance of minimalist design. Crafted in Italy during the 1970s, they are carved from solid white marble with natural gray veining, creating a timeless and versatile look that blends seamlessly with both modern and mid-century interiors. Their geometric wedge-like form is distinctly modernist, echoing the clean lines and sculptural shapes popular in Italian decorative arts of the period.
The bookends are heavy and stable, making them as functional as they are decorative. Overall, they are in good vintage condition, with some expected signs of age: a minuscule chip on the inside edge of one bookend (shown in the photos) and light wear to the base consistent with use. These subtle imperfections do not detract from their refined appearance or utility.
Perfect for displaying on a bookshelf, desk, or credenza, these marble bookends embody both elegance and durability.
All orders are carefully packed and shipped within 24–48 hours.
