These beautiful leather bookmarks are carefully handmade from rich burgundy top grain leather, before being hand-illustrated in warm copper and golden inks.
You might prefer a bee or a dragonfly, or maybe a reminder of the magic of reading - feel the spark of imagining, believe the unbelievable, or let your mind wander foreign worlds! A shimmering tassel complements each bookmark.
Handmade by Bróna in Lake Macquarie, NSW.
Materials & details:
Leather: chrome tanned leather sourced from Australian small business
- Tassel: polyester thread
Size (approx.): 150mm x 35mm x 2mm, plus tassel
What about packaging, sustainability and the environment?
- Genuine leather is an organic material that breaks down naturally in the environment. The polyester tassel could be reused or repurposed. Other than the paint and sealant, no other materials are used in this bookmark.
- Each bookmark comes on a hand-stamped card.
- For extra protection in transit I also use 100% recycled acid-free tissue wrap paper.
- Orders of 1 to 2 items are packed in a slim, rigid cardboard mailing box, which can be reused or recycled, and any labels and tapes can be easily removed or recycled too. These smaller slim boxes take up less space than bulkier parcels, meaning fewer transport vehicles are required on the road.
- Expedited shipping and signature on delivery upgrade options available here.
