Books vs. Kindle Quote
This handmade wooden bookmark features a witty and insightful quote by Stephen Fry: "Books are no more threatened by Kindle than stairs by elevators." Elegantly engraved into high-quality cherry wood, the design captures the humor and enduring charm of traditional reading in the digital age. The rich, warm tones of the cherry enhance the crisp engraving, and the natural grain adds depth and character. Framed by inlay strips made from contrasting hardwoods, the composition is both refined and eye-catching. Finished with a black rope tassel, this USA-made bookmark makes a delightful gift for readers who appreciate both literary wit and artisan quality.
