Arc stands out for its versatility : it can be used as an original bookend to structure your collection or as a designer vase to showcase your flowers. Switching between functions is instantaneous: simply slide the watertight reservoir onto its base to transform your bookshelf stand into a bud vase . A few stems, a small bouquet, or dried flowers are all it takes to create a new arrangement on your shelf. This modular design allows you to evolve your decorating style without cluttering your space , simply by playing with the balance between books and flowers, while simultaneously improving your organization.
This limited-edition series of bookends explores unique textures born from the repurposing of French natural resources . In slate, terracotta, and wheat hues, Arc uses raw materials reminiscent of ceramics and terracotta, yet remaining lightweight. By incorporating recycled materials from agricultural and industrial sectors, each bookend becomes an object with a singular style. Slate from the quarries of Anjou, terracotta made from crushed bricks, and wheat residue from the grain industry: these components give each piece a unique grain and a deep matte finish . Arc thus exemplifies an approach where the material dictates the aesthetic and celebrates the circular economy .
Arc is made in small batches in our workshop in Caen . We chose high-quality PLA , a bio-based material derived from corn starch, for its matte finish and velvety feel. This bioplastic allows for clean curves and precise contours, while minimizing environmental impact. To guarantee uncompromising functionality, the removable flower reservoir is made from recycled PETG, sourced from plastic bottles , ensuring a perfect seal for your fresh arrangements. Local and sustainable production makes each Arc bookend a durable object , designed to accompany your books every day.

Some tips
Usage and maintenance instructions
Each Arc piece is unique: its small-batch production may result in slight variations in texture, a testament to its handcrafted nature. The bookend is intended for indoor use only and should not be exposed to direct heat to preserve the material's quality. The PLA body is not designed for prolonged contact with water, so it is essential to always use the waterproof insert when using it as a vase or bud vase. To ensure the object's longevity, regularly change the water and prevent it from stagnating for extended periods at the bottom of the reservoir. Simply dusting with a soft cloth is all that is needed to maintain the brilliance of your designer bookend and its natural hues.
