Description
These dog bookends are built around a high-temperature crackle-glazed ceramic body. As the glaze cools it opens into fine ice-crackle lines, and those lines travel differently on every piece — the mark of hand-firing rather than a flaw. Face and detailing are painted by hand, giving the figure a dimensional look beneath a glossy cream glaze flecked with dark speckling.
The ceramic is paired with thick solid copper fittings and engraved detailing, worked in a modern copper-clad ceramic technique. Copper and cream sit in cool contrast, and the overall French silhouette leans classical — on a shelf it reads as a small object in its own right rather than a plain prop.
Use them to hold up hardcovers, art books, and boxed sets, or place them on a desk, a shelf, a console, or in a display cabinet. This design has been discontinued and ships in its original branded packaging, which makes it more interesting to buyers who collect copper-clad ceramics.

Shipping & inspection
- • Minimum order value $5,000 per shipment
- • Under that? We still take the order and hold it.
- • We ship by the container, so mixing items cuts your freight cost.
Video inspection before shipping
We inspect every piece on video before it leaves the warehouse and send you the footage to approve. You confirm, then we load the container.
We check appearance, structure, hardware and that all parts are present.
Return & damage policy
- All sales are final. These are direct-showroom goods priced accordingly, so we cannot accept returns or refunds for change of mind, wrong size, colour variance or fit.
- If something arrives damaged, tell us within 14 days of delivery with photos or video, and we will refund the damaged portion.
- We will not ask you to ship the furniture back — return freight on large items usually costs more than the piece itself.
- Flaws already shown in the pre-shipment video and approved by you are not covered.

Frequently asked questions
Where does your furniture come from?
We select furniture directly from partner showrooms in Foshan, alongside surplus and end-of-season opportunities from established lines. We do not hide where the value comes from: we look for pieces that can stand up to showroom presentation, buy directly, and pass the saving on.
What's the quality like?
A showroom is an unforgiving place to judge furniture: colour in daylight, joinery, upholstery, scale and finish are all visible up close. That is the standard we use when selecting: the piece has to be good enough to be presented on a showroom floor, not merely cheap enough to sell.
Is there anything I should know before ordering?
Two things we'd rather you know up front, so there are no surprises on delivery:
- Much of our inventory is surplus stock. We do not present it as anything else, but surplus is not the same as poor quality. We disclose the actual condition of each piece before sale.
- Some pieces may be showroom samples with light handling marks. We inspect every piece before shipping and send you video of the actual goods to approve.
- Some designs are quite distinctive and won't suit everyone. That's a matter of taste rather than quality. If you're unsure, ask us and we'll send you actual photos and details.
Is everything in stock? Can it ship immediately?
Yes — the vast majority is in stock and ready to ship right away. In the rare case our system is out of date and an item has sold, we tell you immediately and help you switch to another piece or get a refund.
What is the minimum order and how is freight calculated?
The minimum order value is $5,000 per shipment. Below that you can still order — we hold the goods and ship them together once your combined orders reach the minimum. We ship by the container, so mixing items cuts your freight cost significantly.
How does inspection before shipping work?
Every piece is inspected on video before it leaves the warehouse, and we send you the footage to approve — only after you confirm do we load the container. We check appearance, structure, hardware and that all parts are present.
Can I return an item?
All sales are final for subjective reasons (change of mind, wrong size, colour variance, how it looks in place) — these are direct-showroom goods priced accordingly. If something arrives damaged, tell us within 14 days with photos or video and we refund the damaged portion; we will not ask you to ship furniture back. Flaws already shown in the pre-shipment video and approved by you are not covered.
