Description
Some decor whispers. These hold the room.
Handblown in midcentury Murano with suspended gold flake and soft champagne fizz, this sculptural pear and apple set offers all the drama without raising its voice. Flat backs give them the function of true bookends, but they shine just as brightly on a bar cart, vanity, or shelf-anywhere you'd place a little bit of beauty and just the right amount of attitude.
Perfectly weighted to hold your first editions, but don't limit them to the library. They thrive on bar carts, vanity trays, or anywhere that deserves a touch of theatrical fruit and a knowing smirk. These aren't paperweights. They're conversation starters for people who don't care if you're impressed-but know you will be.
Dimensions: Pear: 3.5'' L x 3.5'' W x 5.5'' H; Apple: 4'' L x 4'' W x 4'' H
The pear is signed on the underside.
