Book Stand Dark

Book Stand Dark (31x8x36cm) This Book Stand Dark is one of those pieces you see in a home or office and think, 'That's really something.' It isn't your usual book stand. And it's not just for recipes. The design's got a lovely flair with these swirling metal patterns that sort of catch the eye - almost a bit theatrical, really. And there's this dark finish that works surprisingly well in just about any style - contemporary, country, even some of those more eclectic spots customers are always putting together. We always like to point out the chains - they're not just decorative. They actually help keep books open so nothing goes flipping shut halfway through reading or cooking. At 31x8x36cm, it's large enough to hold those big cookbooks upright on a bench but still neat enough for a desktop or side table display. It's made from proper metal, so it gives a real sense of quality when you pick it up - sturdy without being cumbersome. Sometimes people use it for sheet music, too - now there's an idea - but we usually find it becomes a bit of a talking point wherever it ends up. It's one of our favourite pieces to introduce when people come looking for something functional but still want to say they've put effort into their displays at home.
