I bought this bookmark as an extra to get a discount on shipping, but I have to say that I'm glad I bought it. It feels pretty sturdy, with a blue ribbon tied at the top for easily finding it in your book. The cut out of the geisha is so prettily done, it looks like a mini ukiyoe art piece. You can actually tell she is walking through a snow fall, and you can see the detail on her obi. It was packaged very carefully in its own small package, and wrapped in bubble wrap with the One Punchman book I also bought, so good pairing there, Otaku Mode :)
