Our Ex Libris Bookplate Necklace is a way to tell the world that your books are “to be read, not to be lent.” The bookplate was originally used by a medieval librarian to mark a rare or unique book as belonging in his private collection, but has over the years transformed into a more decorative style of decoration. This design features an Art Deco peacock perched on top of your personal library's shelf, ensuring that this necklace will get compliments from everyone who sees it! Made from sustainably sourced North American cherry wood, and finished with soy-based BPA/VOC free resin for extra durability. Polished silver plated chain and disc detail. Bookplate is approximately 1.25 in. tall and 1 inch wide."
