In the orchards of the mind, the most precious fruit is the written word. A whimsical, original tribute to those who climb high and dig deep for the stories they love.

The Tale

Inspired by the allegorical woodcuts of the German and Italian Renaissance, this original design depicts the "Harvesting of Knowledge." Two scholars scale the branches of an ancient tree where heavy, leather-bound tomes grow like ripened fruit, while a keeper waits below to gather the falling wisdom. It is a celebration of the effort, curiosity, and joy found in the pursuit of a good book—a perfect companion for those who treat their library like a thriving garden.

The Craft

Like all our bookmarks, this piece is engineered to be as functional as it is beautiful.

The Material: Crafted from ultra-thin 1/16" Birch Plywood. It provides the satisfying "snap" and scent of real wood without bulk, ensuring your book's spine remains unharmed.

Dimensions: An elegant, elongated 8" x 1.25" profile. Its height makes it ideal for larger hardcovers and academic journals.

Detail: The engraving captures the intricate "hatching" and "cross-hatching" techniques characteristic of 15th-century master woodcutters.

The Lifelong Learner: Teachers, professors, and students.
