Handmade Walnut & Oak Bookends - Personalisable Desk Display
All our products are handmade from solid hardwoods, in our workshop in the wonderful heart of rural Hampshire, UK.
This solid walnut and oak set of bookends and made from solid, furniture-grade walnut and oak, with a lovely natural wood grain pattern.
This product once cut to size, has then been planed, sanded and finished by hand with a food safe finish, to provide a fabulous handmade finished product, and would make for a great addition to someones desk, shelf or display cabinet, throughout the house, keeping a selection of precious books in place.
The bookends have been made using a 25mm thick walnut board and joined using oak dowels to provide some contrast. A solid oak piece of timber has then been cut to size and edges routered, in order to look like an oak 'book' with binding and secured to the L-shaped bookend. Again the use of oak here, provides a fantastic contract against the darker walnut hue.
This truly is a product that will become and heirloom for future generations to enjoy.
Personalisation of this oak 'book' shaped piece is possible, to make this a true;y unique gift, perhaps for a wedding, graduation or for a person who simply loves books!
Feel free to contact us with these requirements and we can let you know what may be possible.
As these are made from a natural product, they will contain their own wonderful characteristics, including unique grain patterns and natural colour tones, that our finish ensures it takes centre stage.
