Details & care
A honed finish runs across every surface — across the flat back, along the stepped ridges that rise and spread outward in a fan from base to arc. Each piece is carved from a single block of onyx, ivory white with quiet sage-green and grey-beige veining that moves through the stone without interruption. On a library shelf in a house with high ceilings, the pair sit facing each other across a row of spines. The ridges cast their own narrow shadow between them. Nothing on the shelf competes — the books lean in, and the stone holds its position steadily at either end.
- Measurements: 5″ L × 2″ W × 5″ H
- Weight: 8 lb
- Material: Solid onyx — dense, close-grained, ivory white ground
- Color Palette: Ivory white ground with soft sage-green and grey-beige veining moving quietly across the surface
- Surface & Texture: Matte and honed across all faces — ridges softly rounded, shadows settle between each one
- Set Includes: Two fan-carved onyx bookends, each cut from a single block of stone, finished identically and presented as a mirrored pair
- Artisan Touches: Veining pattern and depth vary across each piece; ridge definition and tonal character are unique to every pair
- Origin: Responsibly made in India
- Care: Onyx holds best when kept dry and handled with care — the surface is sensitive to acidic substances and abrasion, both of which can dull the honed finish or mark the stone over time.
