These alabaster bookends feature a scene of the Holy Family. Able to keep heavy books in line, they both organize and decorate your home. This pair of bookends makes the perfect personal gift for all families, young or old.
The original artwork is the oil painting Holy Family by contemporary artist Jason Jenicke.
The bookends are made from stone-cast alabaster here in our shop in Steubenville, Ohio. Alabaster is a building and decorating material created from the mineral gypsum that has been used since the time of the ancient Egyptian Pharaohs. It boasts an attractive smooth finish.
Each measures roughly 6" x 8", including the 4"x 6" inset image plaque, and is 3" deep.
Text reads:
"Father, we look to Your loving guidance and order as the pattern of all family life. By following the example of the Holy Family if your Son in mutual love and respect, may we come to the joy of our home in heaven. Amen."
