Perfect weight

"I use this leather book weight every day! It is a perfect weight to hold my book open and the quality leather is excellent."

Kay T. (5/5)

Hands-Free Reading

"I had had similar book weights before, and they are indispensable when I want to read a book while I eat (and for other activities that might require 2 hands but still allow you to read). Unfortunately, I keep losing them. I had never bought one from Levenger before, and this is better than the rest! A little longer, and the weighted ends are bigger and heavier. Will try not to lose another one, but if I do, I'll be coming back to Levenger."

Great Gift!

"Received this as part of reader care package, and it is great! Not sure I would have purchased this for myself, but I am glad that one made its way to my collection. 10/10"

"This was a gift and the recipient liked it."

Ann M. (5/5)

Great Book Weight

"I purchased this book weight as a gift to replace the same product I purchased from Levenger (as a gift) 11 years ago. Being a librarian, my wife is an avid reader and over the past 11 years that book weight has travelled everywhere with her. It's starting to look a little tired from overuse so I thought it was time for a new one. The product is high quality and stands-up to ware extremely well."

Mongrammed Leather Book Weight

"This book weight is absolutely the best. I. have purchased two for myself and gifted three others. The last one was quite a wait getting it, but so worth it. I love all your products."

Q&A

I often read my books in bed, or laying down. Will the book weight hold in this case? I guess I’m asking if it’s magnetic or just works when it’s laid flat. Thank you.
The Leather Book Weight was designed to be used on a flat surface or slight incline. It would not work in upright position.
Hello! Does this book weight use lead? If so, it doesn't seem worth the risk.
The material inside the bookweight is Iron (Fe); there is no lead.
