CUTEST BOOK ENDS EVER!   SO worth the purchase.  Adds character without being overly Cat Person-ish.  :) Solid weight, exact color as pictured.  The "investigative" cats are looking at opened "books" with little glasses on and one is holding a magnifying glass.  The opened "books" actually have writing on them as if real pages.  From a distance (like across a room) you can't really see that they are cats and they kind of just become part of the books your standing up.  Close up they are eye-catchers without being cartoonish at all.  Great purchase for your own library or as a gift.
