Disappointingly "plasticky" leather, Lacks the weight and beautiful leather of a similar bookweight I have. So-o-o similar in the pictures but just not as appealing. But it works. And it's got a nice suede-like surface on the underside. It's OK, but just OK.

This is EXACTLY what I was looking for! I had ordered a book weight from another company and was disappointed. It was not well made, and I wanted one that would be a special gift for a very special person. It is BEAUTIFUL! The leather is rich-looking, the stitching is perfect, and I was pleasantly surprised to see the gorgeous gift box it came in. I had it monogramed for a woman who has led a Bible study for over 30 years, and I know she will be very touched by the personalization. Thank you! I will be ordering more for gifts in the future.

Wonderful and efficient service.

Perfect Birthday gift, initials are a great personal touch. Easy to order, on time delivery! Overall super experience

Can't tell you what a delightful gift this makes. My 'reader friends' just love it so much. They're high quality and I love the "blind" embossing. It's looks great with the teal. Understated and classy. It's a hit.

I love this book weight! It is so aesthetic that it is pure pleasure to use this simple tool. 35 years ago, I received a similar one as a gift. Kept it near my kitchen nook, so it could hold my books while I read and enjoyed refreshments. When my daughter was a tot she got a hold of my tan leather book weight, folded it in the middle and took a good bite on it, soothing her tender teething pearly whites. The old book weight has retained the impression of her teeth all these years. It was and still is a useful book weight and a sentimental reminder of her babyhood. I didn't know these were made today, didn't know where mine of old had come from. I found Leatherology recently and was delighted! I'm happy to have another one for my office. It is so simple and to quote decluttering guru Marie Kondo, it sparks joy!

I love this product! I use it as a giveaway in the research course I teach every fall. I also use it daily in my work as a librarian.

The products were excellent and the delivery exceptional. I highly recommend this company.

The item, packaging, and its price were all almost too good to be true. I chose this as a mothers day gift for a mother that could likely use a pair of bookweights at times. It's plenty weighty while being supple and long enough in the middle to allow for any weighting at any angle, be it a new thick paperback or wide and delicate old family Bible. Packaging is very nice, my mother even liked unfolding the suede-feel wrap inside. Small details such as that are always nice. The only thing that was missing was the note, which I was really just trying to see what Leatherology's notes looked like. The note's message was on the invoice, which came with all the info she would need for the guarantee, etc., without showing the price, just as it should be. Perhaps this WAS the note - if so, it's a line in tiny font, one may want to ask Leatherology if "depending" on the note offered. I expected it to be nicely made - it's even better than I expected, It will last forever, be used, and be beautiful while doing so.

Excellence quality bookweight, and it comes in a very nice gift box.
