BOOKENDS, AGATE: Two pieces of agate are cut from the same boulder, matching perfectly. Our bookends are cleaned and cork disks are placed on the bottom of each half so that tables and shelves are protected. Extra Bookends are also referred to as “geode bookends” because there is a crystal cavity on the front face of the bookend. There are no fractures on the front face of the pair. See grade “A” for more description. Drums of this quality are usually selected in Brazil for customers on special order. (Pictured) “A” Bookend has no fractures on the front face and is cut straight. Usually this grade has great pattern, color, or contrast. The polish is like a mirror-finish. B” Bookend has some natural fractures and minor flaws on the front face. Ordinarily we only buy “B” bookends by special customer order while we are in Brazil.

	BOOKENDS, “BABY”: These are regular agate bookends only in miniature. The pair weight for these bookends is usually less than 2.5 lbs.

	BOOKENDS, JASPER: Jasper is also quartz, and has multi-colored features. Red/Green jasper and Blue jasper pictured.

	BOOKENDS, ROSE QUARTZ: Rose quartz is pink in color and cut similar to agate bookends. They are translucent. We will have “A” Rose Quartz bookends available to buy by the pair.

	BOOKENDS, AMETHYST: Amethyst bookends are but from a large piece of amethyst druze. “Druze” refers to tightly packed crystals. See Story of Amethyst for a more complete description of amethyst.

	BOOKENDS, BLUE: “A” Extra Large dyed blue bookends.
