This bookmark is inspired by the rich geometry of the Tomb of Bibi Jawindi in Uch Sharif, a 15th-century architectural gem that reflects a blend of Central Asian, Persian, and South Asian design traditions. Built during the Sayyid dynasty, the tomb is celebrated for its glazed tilework, layered brick detailing, and harmonious octagonal structure.
The pattern captures the energy and balance of the original monument through interlocking stars and angular forms arranged in rhythmic symmetry. It echoes the language of sacred geometry found throughout the tomb’s surfaces, where ornament served as both devotion and design.
Created with digital precision using premium wood filament and finished by hand, each piece is carefully sanded to reveal crisp lines and surface clarity. Multiple protective finishes are applied to preserve texture, enhance contrast, and ensure a durable matte appearance suited for regular use.
Measuring 169 millimetres by 48 millimetres with a thickness of 3 millimetres, this bookmark is both practical and sculptural. It offers a quiet, elegant tribute to one of South Asia’s most distinctive architectural legacies.
