anyone who has seen the bookend selection at, say, barnes & noble is aware that most of the bookends out there are massive, sculptural productions of polar bears and ships and globes. even looking for simple ones at an office supply store will usually yield something that looks like a hand or gigantic paper clip. luckily, I work near muji and so was able to bring home these barely-there bookends, which get the job done without looking like dobermans.
i also came across this lovely adjustable bookend recently on manufactum, a german site that stocks simple everyday classics.
a few more from manufactum.

BEAUTIFUL but did you buy the muji bookends in UK or order them online, and will they ship to the US?
Muji opened a store in NYC about a year ago, and I got the bookends there. I'm sure they would ship to you from the Manhattan store. They don't seem to carry as wide a range as the oversea stores, but they have quite a bit. If you find yourself in NYC, the store is on Broadway north of Canal, in SoHo.
