Ingeniously quirky, these fantastic bookends will delight & mystify any visitors to your home with the serene dynamic of a perched owl. The owl's branch appears to be magically attached to your books, holding them together apparently effortlessly. What you can't see is the secret to this illusion
- magnets! A metal L-shaped plate is placed inside the cover of the end book. This supports the books, holding them upright, & the birdie bookend is magnetically attracted to it on the outside of the cover. A fabulously simple yet creative idea by Neko Design, a birdie bookend would make a great eco gift for any book-lover, or someone who appreciates imaginative design in their home. The bookends are handmade in Mexico from sandcast recycled aluminium. Each piece is individually finished by h&, making it unique & reflecting the natural variation & organic beauty found in nature. The production process uses locally sourced materials, minimises waste & reduces product weights to ensure that every level of the product life cycle causes the lowest possible impact to the environment. The producers train & support local people & pay a fair wage above the market rate. We think the birdie bookends are proof that responsible consideration for the environment helps rather than hinders great design. Available in white, black or red. Dimensions: Perched owl
