A standing knight in armour, reading, who slots straight into the row of books
A slim rear fin slides between two upright books — no base taking up shelf space
No tools, no fixings, and you can move him along the shelf in seconds
Finished in dark pewter tones that suit wood, painted and glass shelving

Bookends always cost you the two inches you do not have.

A traditional bookend needs a base, and the base needs space. This one has no base at all — the fin goes between the books and he appears to be standing on the shelf himself.

Nothing to screw in or stick down
Nothing eating into the row
Nothing to reposition with two hands

What you are getting

Slim insertion fin

Slides straight between two upright books, so the figure stands in the row rather than beside it.

Feet stay in front

The armoured boots sit clear of the shelf edge, which is what makes the illusion work.

Detailed armour

Moulded plate, helm and sword, hand-finished in dark pewter tones.

Resin figure with rear insertion fin · no base required · easy to reposition

What customers are saying

★★★★★

Avril T., Lincoln

"He looks as though he has climbed out of one of the books. My husband keeps moving him along the shelf for a laugh."

★★★★★

Jenny B., Weston-super-Mare

"No base, which was the whole point for me. My shelves are packed and this cost me nothing in space."

★★★★★

Morag F., Elgin

"The detail on the armour is excellent for the price. Properly sculpted rather than moulded flat."

Common questions

How does he stay up?

A slim fin at his back slides between two upright books, and the books hold him in place. Nothing else is needed.

Will he fit tightly packed shelves?

Yes — you only need to create a small gap between two books to slide the fin in.

Does he hold books up like a bookend?

He is designed to stand among them rather than to brace a whole row. For holding books upright, the bracket bookends in this collection are the better choice.

How do I clean him?

A soft dry brush gets into the armour detail. Nothing wet on the finish.

What if it is not right?

You have 30 days to return it — just get in touch and we will sort it out.
