“As enduring as the words they hold in place, these sculptural bookends bring quiet gravitas to any well-appointed room.”
Product Description
The Vitruvian Travertine & Brass Bookends offer a harmonious balance of weight, geometry, and natural elegance. Crafted from honed travertine—a stone admired since antiquity for its organic veining and warm, earthy tone—each triangle is anchored by a sleek brass base that brings subtle modernity and polish. The interplay of raw texture and refined metal nods to classical proportions with a contemporary lens.
Sold as a set, these architectural accents do more than keep your volumes upright—they frame your stories, lending a grounded presence to bookshelves, desks, and consoles. Whether flanking art monographs in a living room or adding sophistication to a home office, the Vitruvian set is a statement of timeless design.
Style Advice from Rachel Blindauer
Bookends are the quiet workhorses of interior styling. These, in particular, double as minimalist sculptures and functional anchors. I love using them to elevate open shelving or add visual weight to an otherwise airy console. They pair especially well with warm neutrals, soft linen textures, and curated stacks of books. Don’t be afraid to let them sit solo on a shelf—they carry their own artistic merit.
