Heavy enough to do the job
I have thrown out three sets of light bookends that just slid along the shelf. These do not move. Real travertine — the pitting is different on each one, which I like.

Décor Objects
Solid stone, so they actually hold books up
Two L-shaped blocks cut from real travertine. Each weighs over two kilos, which is the only specification that matters in a bookend.
2.2 kg each
Heavy enough to hold a full shelf. Light bookends slide and the row collapses.
Real travertine
Cut from stone, not resin cast. Every pair has different pitting and grain.
Felt base
Protects a wooden shelf and stops them scratching as you move them.
Low L profile
The foot slides under the first book so the weight is on your side.
01 — The weight
The only spec that counts
Bookends fail because they are light. Two kilos of stone against a leaning row of hardbacks does not move, which is the entire job.
02 — The stone
Travertine has holes
The natural pitting is the material, not a defect. It is what tells you this was cut rather than moulded from stone dust and resin.
03 — The alternative use
They work as objects
Because they are solid stone with a clean profile, a pair sitting on a sideboard with nothing between them still looks deliberate.

Unsealed, so keep them dry
Honed and unsealed, which means a wet glass would mark them. On a bookshelf that is a non-issue. Felt on the base saved my walnut shelf from scratches.
