Alabaster bookends featuring the Poor Man of Assisi. Holding heavy books in line, these bookends both organize and decorate your home. This pair of bookends makes the perfect personal gift for all those with a devotion to this great evangelizer and passionate saint who was on fire and in love with Jesus Christ.
The famous image of St. Francis by the Italian artist Cimabue is painted in the Byzantine style and has a classic look that fits with any room.
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:
