Marble Bookmark is everything a bookmark is not: heavy to lift, difficult to carry, bigger than the book itself.
The work alters the power balance between page keeper and book, tethering it to its place.

Marble Bookmark was commissioned by Wallpaper* for its Handmade exhibition during Milan Design Week 2012.
