Origami Crane Metal Bookmark
A paper crane drawn in steel — folds and creases cut as lines — for readers who like quiet, precise things.
The design
The crane is rendered as an outline with its fold lines, so it looks like the paper original held up to the light. It is one of the larger silhouettes in the range and stands clearly above a hardcover. The stem below carries the hook that holds the page.
Who it is for
For a reader of Japanese literature, of books about craft and patience, or of anything you would give someone getting well. Also a favourite with people who fold cranes themselves. More like it: bird bookmarks.
