Why engraved wooden bookmarks make a good gift

Engraving a name, date or quote makes the gift personal without costing a lot.
Wood has a warm, natural look that appeals to readers who like simple craftsmanship.
Thin wood holds up well to daily use and doesn't crumple like paper.

What to look for

Check the thickness, since thicker wood can stretch the spine of a paperback.
Confirm how many characters of custom text fit before placing a personalized order.
Look at the wood type and finish, as bamboo, maple and cherry differ in colour.
