Ceramic Weight Doorstop at Rockett St. George

We were very taken by this solid, architectural doorstop, but we think it's really the beautiful barn door, opening up to the flokati rug from a brick courtyard, that has us swooning.

• About $50 at Rockett St. George

We have these weights at the manufacturing plan I work at, and you always see them being used as doorstops (against company procedure, since they could get damaged and therefore not weigh their standard weight). I guess now I can buy a pretty one for home, to remind me of work.

I think there's a lot cheaper options that are just as, if not more attractive than this.

A doorstop should not cost $50 bucks.

Why not find a cool iron antique figure at a flea market? I'm sure there are plenty of Heavy Ceramic pieces to be found as well. Maybe even a heavy glass piece if you can find the reallllllllly thick old school glass.

Take something that was meant to be a small coffee table sculpture and use it as a doorstop.
