This striking pair of vintage bookends is crafted from beautifully banded onyx marble, showcasing dramatic natural veining in warm tones of blush, rose, cream, honey, and soft green. The sculptural half-dome form paired with stepped bases gives the set a timeless architectural presence, making these pieces equally functional and decorative.
Each bookend features unique stone patterning, highlighting the organic character and individuality inherent to natural onyx. Their substantial weight provides excellent stability for books, while the polished surfaces reflect light beautifully, adding depth and warmth to bookshelves, desks, or consoles.
The set was manufactured in Pakistan, a region long recognized for its skilled stone carving and onyx craftsmanship, particularly during the mid-to-late 20th century. These pieces exemplify the era’s appreciation for natural materials and sculptural decor.
Ideal for Mid-Century Modern, Hollywood Regency, Art Deco–inspired, or eclectic interiors, these bookends make a sophisticated statement in both traditional and contemporary spaces.
Estimated Year of Manufacture: Circa 1960s–1970s.
