Why are Aksa's Bicycle Bookends the best?
If you’ve ever had a tower of beloved novels tumble to the floor, you know the true value of a sturdy bookend. The Aksa Handcrafted Black Bicycle Bookends are considered the best because they deliver unmatched anti-skid stability and durability. Built with a robust, industrial look, these bookends are heavy-duty enough to handle thick textbooks and large collections. They offer a stylish, clutter-free solution that ensures your books stay perfectly upright and your workspace remains organised.
Reasons to love -
- Fair Trade - Aksa is a fair trade shop. This means every bicycle bookend has been lovingly crafted by an artisan in return for economic independence, welfare and community engagement. Read more about the 10 Fair Trade principles. We are also the recipient of the 2023 Australia Post Local Business Hero Award Winner.
- Handmade: Our bookend is entirely handmade using hand tools and traditional craftsmanship passed down through generations. This means each piece is unique in its own beautiful and warm way in terms of design and beauty.
- Eco-friendly, Sustainable Raw Materials: All of our bookends have been handcrafted in India using eco-friendly and sustainable raw materials like recycled metal.
They are the definitive choice for the book lover whose style is anything but ordinary. Read about the history of bicycles on our blog.
About Indian Metal Craft & Artisans
The Indian Handicraft industry provides livelihood to many artisans. Amongst the wide range of handicrafts, metalwork is one of the most popular crafts in India. Some popular techniques can be traced back 5,000 years to the ancient city of Mohenjo-Daro in the Indus Valley Civilization.
Artisans mainly use metals like brass, copper, bronze, iron, and silver which are durable and lend themselves well to delicate designs and patterns.
