What are the dimensions and general size of these pig bookends?
Each White Terracotta Pig Bookend measures approximately 5.25" high, making them a compact yet sturdy option for styling bookshelves, consoles, or desks without taking up too much space. Their size is ideal for supporting smaller groups of books or serving as a decorative accent.
What material are the bookends made from and what is the crackle finish?
These bookends are crafted from terracotta and finished in a white glaze with a charming crackle effect. The crackle finish adds subtle texture and a slightly aged, farmhouse-inspired look while still keeping the overall style light and neutral so it pairs easily with a variety of décor themes.
Are the White Terracotta Pig Bookends functional or mostly decorative?
They are both functional and decorative. The terracotta construction provides enough weight to help keep lighter books, cookbooks, or décor pieces in place, while the whimsical pig design and crackle glaze make them a fun statement piece on open shelving, built-ins, or a home office desk.
Where can I use these bookends in my home?
These pig bookends work well on bookshelves, kitchen shelves with cookbooks, office desks, children’s rooms, or anywhere you want a playful farmhouse accent. Their neutral white color blends nicely with wood, metal, or painted furniture and they complement rustic, farmhouse, cottage, and eclectic styles.
How should I care for and clean the terracotta pig bookends?
Care is simple: dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth. If needed, gently wipe with a slightly damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads that could scratch or dull the crackle glaze, and do not immerse the bookends in water to protect the terracotta.
