Pair of Portoro marble bookends

Elegant pair of Art Deco bookends made of genuine Portoro marble (Liguria, Italy). Their minimalist and geometric design, combining a rectangular base with a perfectly polished half-cylinder, makes them both functional and decorative objects, perfect for a bookcase, desk, or console table. Their weight ensures excellent stability for holding your books. Portoro marble is recognizable by its deep black color enhanced with natural golden to ochre veins (the appearance is often compared to a natural, highly decorative work of art). It is rare and expensive due to its unique beauty and the difficulty of its extraction (which is, moreover, limited). A rare piece for lovers of noble materials and elegant decorative objects. Very rare chips. Weight 1.950 kg. Ref 287/25.
