The problem with pretty, ornate bookends is that they take up valuable space that could hold another book or two, but the Invisible Bookend takes care of that problem, as well as making decorating a lot easier because it looks like your books are being held by nothing more than air.
The optical illusion is pulled off by a cleverly designed piece of mirror stainless steel, and it can hold up to a meter and a half of books at an angle, making friends and family suspect that you either have mad style skillz or are secretly a powerful magician. Personally, I’d work the magician angle.
Forget about the form and go completely with function with the Invisible Bookend for $67.11 at Paul Cocksedge Shop.
