Agate Bookends (Natural)

The media could not be loaded. Lovely bookends that I bought to use as ornaments to go with an Agate slice I already have. From the listing photo I was expecting more of a brown outer but as every piece is uniquely individual I’m not bothered. They really are beautiful up close, I want to buy more but have nowhere to put them… yet… lol. Arrived well packaged and great value.

I liked the mineral it was nicely prepared and there's a but coming, I was slightly disappointed with the size you look at the item photo and expect it to be a little larger in real life. This is why I have not given full marks even though its a nice piece.

Absolutely love them, sturdy, heavy and larger than expected. Look lovely on my shelf

... else it will be too late to return it. (Mine was intended as a gift; so it remained unwrapped for too long.) Turned out to be garbage. NOTHING like the attractive example illustrated online to tempt purchase. Unattractive monochrome piece of rock cut in half - with a chip knocked out of one of the facing edges, presumably during inexpert polishing. Even my local charity shop didn't want it - so it's now in the bin, where it belongs. Look elsewhere ... [G Wilkinson : Jan.2025]

Very pleased with the bookends. I don’t think they would cope with lots of heavy books but they’re more decorative than anything.Really pretty stone. I painted the outside gold which worked really well.My only gripe is that I didn’t get an email or a text to tell me that they’d been delivered to my local post office. But that is probably no fault of the seller.

Ordered the natural colour bookends - but they have arrived and they are blue still beautiful but just not whet I was after.

I was a bit skeptical due to the reviews. Knowing each rock is completely different, I decided to take a risk and buy them. Mine are beautiful!! I got the natural colour and I love it, they work well for the books I have.

Your questions were difficult to answer about a natural and unpredictable geode bookend. Is it value for money, sturdiness and style; rhetorical.As a geologist I'm sure my son will love it and it will last a long time!
