Memento Mori Bookmark, Plague Doctor Reader Gift, Gothic Bookmark, Teacher Gift,

This bookmark features a replica image of a plague doctor, a wooden picture pendant, from the 17th-19th century era. The mask held flowers or herbs to protect the wearer, a belief of the time. I've accented with glass bead charms and a small skull charm. I've added these to a black velvet ribbon. Memento Mori, Memento Vivere. In other words, clarify your existence by acknowledging death, specifically your own. It's been said better but I hope you understand the reference. This isn't just a morbid reference, but a call to live life to the fullest.

Use the drop down menu to choose length of your bookmark. This is just for the part that will fit inside the book and does not include any larger beads, charms or pendants on the ends. Refer to photos for example.
