{"product_id":"travertine-stepped-bookends-pair","title":"Travertine Stepped Bookends, Pair","description":"\u003cp\u003eA pair of natural travertine bookends in a stepped arch shape, each about 12 x 14 cm at the base and 18 cm tall. They are for a bookshelf, a desk or a console, where they hold a short row of books upright and still look like objects in their own right when the books come out.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe arch steps back in thin layered ridges, so the stone throws a set of fine lines of light and shadow. Travertine is a warm, porous limestone with soft banding and small natural pits, and the two halves rarely match exactly, which is part of the reason to choose stone over cast resin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStone has the weight that light metal bookends lack, so the books stay put without a lip sliding under them. Use them as a pair at each end of a row, or split them across two shelves as small sculptures. Because travertine is natural, colour, pores and banding vary. Dust with a soft dry cloth and keep them away from water and acids. A good gift for a reader or a new study.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: natural travertine stone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize: about 12 x 14 x 18 cm each\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuantity: pair of two\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse: bookshelf, desk, console\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCare: dust with a soft dry cloth, keep away from water and acids\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Dusfora","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":64933112217977,"sku":"5749786629055","price":261.2,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1032\/1412\/1337\/files\/dusfora-bookends-closeup.jpg?v=1792422294","url":"https:\/\/dusfora.com\/products\/travertine-stepped-bookends-pair","provider":"Dusfora","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
