The bookends are made of transparent acrylic and look exactly like the pictures on Amazon. Two bookends are delivered per pack. The bookends meet exactly their purpose, and recognize also still good. Only the lower part could mE be slightly thinner. The thickness is about 3 mm, and "lifts" so the books slightly. Only the slow delivery has led me to a point deduction. After the Vesand but is free (great!), But this point is "almost" negligible.
