The stone’s natural layers of honey, cream, smoke, and lavender run across the cap and stem, and the polished surface glows in the light. They’re heavy enough to hold a real row of books and work just as well as a small sculpture on a shelf or coffee table.

Each bookend measures 6.25 inches wide by 3 inches deep by 6 inches tall. Very good vintage condition with minor age-appropriate wear. One bookend retains its original foil label reading “Onyx Stone, Hand Carved, Made in Mexico.” Please see all available photographs and consider them as part of the item description. See less
