Beautiful cultural piece
I bought this as a souvenir from my trip to Nanchang, but the online version is just as good. The brass has a lovely antique shine.

Sturdy and elegant
This bookmark stays in place well and doesn't bend easily. The engraving of the Preface is very clear and readable.

Great gift idea
Bought this for my literature professor. She loved the packaging and the historical significance. One star off only because shipping took a bit longer than expected.

Exquisite craftsmanship
The detail on the calligraphy is incredible. It feels heavy and substantial in the hand, not cheap at all. The red box makes it perfect for gifting.

Nice weight and feel
Very satisfied with the quality. The edges are smooth so it won't tear pages. A nice touch of culture for my home library.

Perfect for book lovers
The combination of the brass metal and the red box is striking. It looks even better in person than in the photos.
Q: Will the brass tarnish over time?
A: Like all natural brass, it may develop a patina over time which adds to its vintage charm. You can polish it with a brass cleaner if you prefer to keep the original shine.
Q: Does the red box come with a protective inner lining?
A: Yes, the red gift box includes a soft velvet or satin inner lining to protect the brass surface from scratches.
Q: Is the text on the bookmark the full Preface or just an excerpt?
A: Due to the size of the bookmark, it features the most famous opening lines and key phrases of the Tengwang Pavilion Preface rather than the entire text.
Q: Can I request a specific engraving or name on the back?
A: Currently, this item is sold with the standard Preface design only. Custom engraving services are not available for this specific product listing.
Q: Is this suitable for thick hardcover books?
A: Absolutely. The metal is rigid enough to hold its shape even when placed in thick hardcover editions without bending.
