A pair of bookends is the right way to buy them, since a single one holds nothing. These carry a detailed Lady Justice figurine — the goddess with scales and blindfold, the oldest symbol of impartial judgement — in a bronze finish that gives them the weight and presence of a proper decorative object rather than a plain block. That makes them a natural piece for a lawyer, magistrate, law student or anyone in the legal profession, and a genuinely well-judged gift for a call to the bar, a graduation or a new chambers. On a shelf they do the practical job of holding books upright while giving the shelf a focal point.

Buying guide
Bookends work by weight and friction, so place the heaviest books at the ends against them rather than in the middle, and make sure the shelf surface is not so polished that they slide — a felt pad underneath solves that and protects the shelf at the same time. Dust with a dry brush, working into the detail of the figure where a cloth cannot reach. Keep bronze-finish pieces out of prolonged direct sunlight. As a gift for a legal professional, they are among the few desk or shelf objects that get kept rather than shelved.
How it compares
Against plain bookends, a figurine pair gives a shelf a focal point as well as function. Against a desk ornament, bookends do a job every day. For very heavy reference volumes, larger or heavier bookends hold more securely.
