Ribbon Marker

by David Harris // December 22  

A ribbon marker is a long, thin strip of fabric or ribbon that marks one’s position in a particular book. The tassels are often employed instead of bookmarks and can be easily removed and re-inserted into the book. Ribbon markers help identify various parts of the book, such as places one seeks to resume reading from later.

Ribbon markers are both practical and decorative. Practically, they aid the reader in following their line. Ribbon markers can give a book a touch of luxury and enhance its aesthetic look.

Ribbon markers are usually available in several colors and styles; one can buy them from all bookstores. Others may wish to create ribbon markers from personal textiles or ribbons. For instance, a person can apply a ribbon passed down in their family or with a special meaning.

A book may also have a ribbon marker that marks different sections or shows that the book has been read. For instance, a red ribbon marker may signify the start of the New Testament in a Bible. Meanwhile, a green ribbon marker may indicate a book has been read.

Ribbon markers are a good and pretty way of marking one’s place in the book. They also make a lovely gift to a reader.

Ribbon markers are important because they help you maintain your page when reading a book, especially for long. Additionally, they ensure you can quickly locate your position whenever you set the book aside and revisit it. Bookmarks made of ribbon can be used to mark the part of a page in a book, especially a long book with small print.
