The bookends are made from stone-cast alabaster here in our shop in Steubenville, Ohio. Alabaster is a building and decorating material created from the mineral gypsum that has been used since the time of the ancient Egyptian Pharaohs. It boasts an attractive smooth finish. Each measures roughly 6″ x 8″, including the 4″x 6″ inset image plaque, and is 3″ deep. Text reads: “Jesus, thank you for coming to me in Holy Communion. I love you very much, please help me to Love you even more.” ( BKE-1913
