Oak Curtain Crust Bookmark

Photographed in an ancient North Yorkshire woodland on a crisp autumn day, this image captures the quiet beauty of the Oak Curtain Crust (Hymenochaete Rubiginosa). Often found layered like worn velvet on fallen oak, this tough, russet-brown fungus whispers of the forest’s slow alchemy - decaying, becoming life again. Though not as famed in folklore as its red-capped cousins, it carries its own quiet magic, clinging to centuries-old trees like a woodland relic. This photograph preserves a moment of stillness, texture, and transformation beneath the canopy’s golden light.

This elegant metal bookmark features a brushed silver finish on the reverse side and comes with a coloured tassel for easy use. Measuring approximately 95 x 40mm, it’s the perfect blend of style and practicality for any book lover.
