Komagata Bookends

Oji Masanori for Futagami

• Introduction

  I am the Komagata bookends. I look good at every angle but your books only look good at one. Straight up.

   

• Curator's Notes

   

  These thoughtfully designed book ends are so sophisticated, they will add charm to any bookshelf. The solid brass is heavy enough to counterbalance the weight of heavy books yet maintains a distinct elegance.
