Lion Bookends

A set of authentic African bookends fashioned in the shape of a lion. The lion is a symbol of majesty, strength, courage, and justice. The lioness is frequently considered the Great Mother and a symbol of protection.

The lion bookends are meant to serve as guardians of your library and represent strength and personal power.

Carved by hand by master artisan George Obeng and his team of artisans in Ghana. Fashioned out of cedarwood with intricate detailing. Each bookend measures 8.75 inches (Height) x 5.5 inches (Width) x 5.25 inches (Depth). Weighs approximately 1.9lbs. A great way to add some treasures from African to your home decor.

Your purchase helps to support an African artisan, their family and their extended team. 

Each item is handmade so there may be slight and subtle differences in size, color and pattern. These slight differences are what makes each bookend set unique and a true work of art.
