Accompanying written pages since more than 2,000 years ago, the bookmark dates back to the 6th century BC, the oldest one being made of leather, ornamented and with a parchment on the back. Since the Victorian Age, bookmarks have begun to be collected. The ladies from that period taught their daughters to embroider, the latter having to show their talent. Thus, bookmarks were embroidered and used for prayer books or were given as gifts to friends.

So, being widely used today, but in other forms, the bookmark is ideal for any reader, because they can readily continue the story right from the point where they left it:
