Book Inspiration Handcrafted Upcycled Metal and Pinewood Bookends from Mexico

Carlos Torres

(8)

Two figures work together to hold up your books in this delightful pair of bookends. A perfect decorative accessory for a book lover, the bookends are handcrafted from pinewood and upcycled iron rebar and railroad spikes by Mexican artisan Carlos Torres.

Because the artisan recycles materials such as nails, bars and other metals, the colors and dimensions can vary depending on what's available. Each sculpture is a unique piece or art. The artisan does not give his sculptures a fine polished finish, therefore smudges and scratches may be present.
