This product
THE CHAPTER BOOKENDS, SOLD IN PAIRS, ARE MADE FROM SOLID 2-1/2" THICK BLOCKS OF ACRYLIC FOR ADDED STABILITY AND WEIGHT TO MAKE THEM HEAVY ENOUGH TO HOLD UP LARGER SIZED BOOKS. THE SIMPLE AND ELEGANT DESIGN WAS INSPIRED BY A BOOK ITSELF, AND THE COLOR APPLICATION FLOATS IN THE CENTER OF THE BLOCK LIKE THE SPINE OF A BOOK. THE COLOR REFLECTS THROUGHOUT THE PIECE AND YOU CAN TURN THEM DIFFERENT WAYS FOR DIFFERENT LOOKS.
