Price History
Description
Designed by Guillaume Delvigne, the Rami Bookend by Ligne Roset brings together function and artistic form in a striking piece of solid green marble. Handcrafted with care, its bold, geometric silhouette draws inspiration from contemporary sculpture, showcasing the natural depth and variation of the stone. Versatile in use, it can be positioned vertically or horizontally, allowing you to style and support your books with flexibility. Both practical and expressive, it adds a refined, architectural presence to shelves, desks, or sideboards.
Our Stylist Says
The Rami bookend offers a sleek, sculptural presence thanks to its striking green marble finish, making it a versatile addition to both modern and traditional interiors. I love how it elevates a simple bookshelf or stack of books with its solid, sculptural form, adding a sense of sophistication without overpowering the space. It's ideal for neutral or monochrome schemes, where its rich colour can really stand out, but it also pairs beautifully with plants, jewellery trays, or decorative objects on sideboards. For practical styling, group it with other natural materials like wood or metal to create a balanced, curated look. Its weight and substantial feel also mean it’s as functional as it is stylish, providing a sturdy support for your favourite reads.

About Heal's
A Rich Legacy in Furniture Design
Heal's is a well-known British furniture store with a history that spans over 200 years. It began in 1810 when John Harris Heal and his son started a business for feather products but soon moved into furniture.
By the 1900s, almost everyone in London knew Heal's for its great furniture. Interestingly, they were also among the first to sell electric lights in Britain. During World War II, their main store even helped by making parachutes for soldiers.
Influences and Design Philosophy
A significant part of Heal's story is Sir Ambrose Heal, who worked there for 60 years, from 1893 to 1953. He had a unique idea combine the beautiful designs from the Arts and Crafts Movement with affordable manufacturing.
This meant more people could buy well-designed furniture without breaking the bank. If you visit the Heal's store on Tottenham Court Road in London, you'll see a cool spiral staircase and a statue of a bronze cat, both of which show off the company's unique style.
Modern Expansion and Growth
While Heal's has a long history, they're always looking forward. In 2001, a company named Wittington Investments bought Heal's, helping it to grow and open stores in many cities, including Manchester and Leeds.
They've also started selling products online, aiming to be a modern e-commerce store with physical showrooms. Their main Tottenham Court Road store celebrated 200 years in 2018. Recently, they revamped it, making it even better for shoppers.
