These alabaster bookends feature St. Therese of Lisieux who loved Christ with her every breath. Able to keep heavy books in line, they both organize and decorate your home. This pair of bookends makes the perfect personal gift for anyone with a devotion to this holy young woman.

The classic photograph of St. Therese is accompanied by her promise to assist the needy on earth, sending "a shower of roses" from heaven as she does so.

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 and will last for years to come. 

Each measures roughly 6" x 8", including the 4"x 6" inset image plaque, and is 3" deep.

Text reads:

"I will spend my heaven doing good upon the earth. I will let fall from heaven a shower of roses.

~St. Therese of Lisieux"
