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 humble saint.

The classic photograph of St. Therese as a young girl is accompanied by her beautifully simple prayer, "My God, how I love you!" May we all learn to give ourselves to our Creator as she did.

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:

"My God, how I love you!

~St. Therese of Lisieux"
