I’ve been using this Nambu Tekki bookend for a few months now, and it’s been a solid addition to my shelf. The cast iron construction feels substantial and durable, exactly what you’d expect from Japanese craftsmanship. At 11x8x17cm, it’s perfectly sized for keeping my paperbacks upright without taking up too much space. While it’s on the pricier side, the build quality makes it worth the investment. I stumbled upon it through an aster trade recommendation, and I’m glad I did.
