Description
Spruce up your shelf space with these classic bookends. Made from Marquino marble, which benefits from a strong and natural black colouring with white veins, they are offered in a curved shape meaning they fit in easily to any living space.
Our Stylist Says
I love these marble bookends for their sleek, minimalist look that effortlessly elevates a variety of interiors. The monochrome palette makes them versatile enough to slot into modern, Scandinavian, or even industrial spaces, adding a touch of sophistication without overpowering other decor elements. Practical styling tips include pairing them with open shelves to display your favourite books or using them on a sideboard for a curated vignette. To create a cohesive look, consider mixing these with other textured pieces or metallic accents for added visual interest. They’re as functional as they are stylish, providing sturdy support while acting as a statement piece.

About John Lewis
A Legacy of Innovation and Inclusion
John Lewis started as a small shop on London's Oxford Street in 1864. Today, it's part of a bigger family called the John Lewis Partnership, which also includes Waitrose stores.
What makes them special is that they're owned by their employees, known as 'Partners'. The idea, from the beginning, was to give everyone a say in how the business was run. With over 74,000 Partners (employees) at the heart of its operations, the essence of John Lewis's vision, from over a century ago, still echoes today being the largest employee-owned venture.
Adapting to Changing Times
Like many stores, John Lewis has had to change with the times. They've closed some shops but have grown their online business a lot, especially when more people started shopping online during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Their history is filled with key moments, like buying Peter Jones in 1905, adding Waitrose in 1937, and starting their website in 2001. They've always tried to adapt and stay relevant.
Commitment to a Greater Purpose
John Lewis believes in doing good and making the world a better place. This is seen in the way they treat their employees and customers. For example, in 2021, they were the first big UK store to give parents six months paid leave when they have a baby and two weeks paid leave if they lose a pregnancy. They've been around for over a century and always aim to do the right thing by everyone.
