Description
The designs for these bookmarks come from 19th century English ceramic tiles, drawn by John Moyr Smith. I fell in love with them at first sight. The set includes images from 17 of Shakespeare’s plays. Included are scenes from:
* Hamlet
* Othello
* A Midsummer Night’s Dream
* King Lear
* Much Ado About Nothing
* Romeo and Juliet
* Twelfth Night
* Macbeth
* The Tempest
* The Merchant of Venice
* Henry II
* The Taming of the Shrew
* Cymbeline
* Antony and Cleopatra
* Troilus and Cressida
* A Winter’s Tale
* Timon of Athens
I’ve also created a bonus bookmark featuring some decoration from the 1600s Folio publication, and one of the few ‘verified’ Shakespeare autographs.
This listing is for a set of 18 6″x1.5″ laminated paper bookmarks which are handmade with foil prints in your choice of foils – green, red, blue, copper, gunmetal, purple, or a mix thereof, or matte black foil – on gray cardstock. The metallic foils shimmer as the light on them changes. You may receive a different set to the one pictured in this listing. As each print bears individual foil patterns, every bookmark set is unique.
