Striking vintage pair of Italian alabaster bookends , featuring a sculptural oval form with a bold checkerboard inlay design. Crafted from alternating sections of creamy white and rich caramel-brown alabaster, these bookends showcase the natural translucency and veining characteristic of fine Italian stonework. Each piece is mounted on a solid white alabaster base, providing both stability and visual contrast.
The clean geometric pattern paired with the organic variation of the stone reflects classic mid-century Italian design sensibilities, making these bookends both functional and decorative. Ideal for styling shelves, desks, or consoles, they also work beautifully as standalone sculptural accents.
Measurements:
4.25" w x 2.0" d x 6.5' h / Inches
Condition
Good vintage condition. Light surface wear, minor scratches, and natural inclusions consistent with age and the nature of alabaster. One base shows natural veining and minor edge wear. both bookends remain solid and present very well.
