Hand Someone a Bookmark They Keep
This is the page marker people don't throw away. Instead of a flimsy paper strip, a silk bookmark is a rigid 16 point card wrapped in soft silk lamination on both sides, so it feels substantial the second it lands in a hand. Whether an author signs it at a launch, a library hands it out at story hour, or a shop tucks one into every bag, it starts at $200.84 for 100 and holds a 4.6 out of 5 rating.
These bookmarks punch above their price. The soft-touch finish reads premium, the laminated card shrugs off the bends and spills a bookmark lives with, and the tall shape holds a title, a logo, and a QR code with room to spare.

The price rewards a bigger run. A set of 100 starts at $200.84, and the per-bookmark cost keeps sliding as the count climbs to 5,000, so a full box for a book tour or a store costs far less per piece than a quick test batch. Tap any tier below to see the live total and exactly how much each step up saves before you commit.
What Are Silk Bookmarks?
Silk bookmarks are printed bookmarks made on a 16 point card with a silk lamination film on both sides, printed full color in 2 sizes, a 2" x 6" or a longer 2" x 8". People reach for them when a paper marker would feel cheap: author and book-launch promos, library and school handouts, bookstore giveaways, wedding and event favors, and branded inserts for shipped orders. Because the finish feels premium, the bookmark gets kept and reused instead of tossed. If you want a different premium finish, the Velvet Laminated Bookmarks sit right beside these as another soft-touch pick.
What Size Should a Silk Bookmark Be?
Both sizes keep the classic tall bookmark shape, so the choice comes down to how much you need to say. The 2" x 6" is the default and the most common, long enough for a title, a logo, and a QR code without crowding. Step up to the 2" x 8" when you want extra length for a book blurb, a reading list, or a taller design that peeks further out of the pages. Both sizes and both ink options are grouped below exactly the way the live configurator presents them, so you know what you can change before you change it. For a glossier look at the same price, the Gloss Laminated Bookmarks are the shinier sibling.
Here are a few easy ways to make a silk bookmark pull its weight.
Lean into the soft-touch finish
The silk lamination is the whole appeal: a smooth, velvety matte that deepens your colors and protects the print against fingerprints, bends, and moisture. Keep the design clean so the finish does the talking, and a simple logo on a rich background feels expensive. If you want an even softer, suede-like hand, the Suede Bookmarks carry the same idea a step further.
Put the QR code to work
A tall bookmark is a natural frame for a QR code. Print your cover or handle on the front, drop a scannable code on the back with 4/4 both-sides printing, and the bookmark does the typing for whoever you hand it to, linking straight to a buy page, a reading list, or a sign-up.
Design it without a designer
You do not need a design background to make a silk bookmark look sharp. Start from a professionally built layout in our bookmark design templates, then change the colors, copy, and logo in the online editor in minutes. The tall canvas keeps things simple, since one strong idea fills it.
Already have your artwork? Skip the editor and download a press-ready blank instead. The blank silk bookmark template is built at the real trim size with the 1/8" bleed and safe margin already drawn in, so your design never crowds the cut. Grab the size that matches your order, drop your art in, and upload.
Wally gives your bookmark a soft-touch upgrade
Why a 16pt silk-laminated bookmark gets kept and used, not tossed.

A run of 100 silk bookmarks starts at $200.84, printed on a 16pt card with a soft silk lamination that feels velvety and shrugs off tears and moisture. Pick 2 by 6 or 2 by 8 inch, print one side or both, and Wally gets them to you as fast as same day.
How Much Do Silk Bookmarks Cost?
Silk bookmarks start at $200.84 per 100, about $2.01 each, and the per-bookmark price keeps dropping as the quantity climbs to 5,000, where a run of $693.46 works out to roughly 14 cents each. So how many do you actually need? Drag the slider below to set your count and watch both the set total and the true per-bookmark cost update live, and find the point where one more step up barely moves the budget.
Can You Print on Both Sides?
Yes. Choose 4/0 to print full color on the front with a blank back, or 4/4 to print full color on both sides. The 4/4 option is where a bookmark earns its keep: a cover or logo on the front, then a blurb, a reading list, a discount code, or a QR link on the back. Pair both-sides printing with the silk lamination and a 2 inch strip starts doing the work of a small flyer.
How Do Silk Bookmarks Compare to the Rest of the Range?
Silk bookmarks are the soft-touch pick, but they are not your only move. If you are weighing a glossier surface, a velvet hand, or a suede feel, it helps to see the trade-off in plain numbers. The chart below lines up silk bookmarks against their closest siblings so you can compare the starting price on each before you choose.
How Fast Can You Get Silk Bookmarks?
Silk bookmarks print on a 4 business day standard turnaround, and when a date sneaks up you can move that to 2-day, Next-Day, or even Same-Day production. Each step buys back time for a set amount on top of the base price, so you only pay for speed when you actually need it. Order in time for the same-day cutoff and your bookmarks ship that afternoon from the NYC plant, and with 99.8% of orders landing on time and 82% shipping early, you are not gambling on the date.
See the Rest of Our Range
Silk bookmarks are one stop in a much larger lineup, and you can scan the full print product range any time. If a glossier surface, a velvet finish, or a heavier novelty stock would serve you better, the rest of the family is one tap away. Each option shows its own starting price and links straight to its product page, so finding the right fit takes seconds.
