Regina Andrew Norman Bookends

Yes, the combination of the crystal base and the solid sculptural figures provides sufficient weight to stabilize standard hardcover books. However, for exceptionally large or heavy coffee table books, you may want to place them against a wall or another bookend for extra support.

The gold leaf finish is delicate, so avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive cloths. A simple, dry microfiber cloth is best for dusting; if you need to remove fingerprints, use a very lightly dampened cloth and dry immediately.

While the crystal bases are smooth, they are hard materials. To prevent any potential scratching on delicate surfaces, we recommend placing small felt or silicone pads on the bottom of the crystal pedestals.

This set includes a left-facing and a right-facing figure. This design allows you to place them on either end of a row of books so that both dogs are looking inward toward the collection.

The crystal base is completely clear and transparent. This allows it to catch light and reflect the surface it sits on, which creates a nice contrast with the opaque, antiqued gold finish of the figures.
