This Pyramid International magnetic bookmark, officially licensed by Harry Potter, is dedicated to Gryffindor, one of the four houses at Hogwarts.
The design features mainly the red and gold colours associated with Gryffindor. In the centre is the house’s coat of arms, featuring a rearing lion, accompanied by the name ‘GRYFFINDOR’. Horizontal red stripes and small stars complete the design against a gold background, giving the bookmark the appearance of an accessory directly inspired by the house colours.
The bookmark folds around the page and uses two magnetic elements to hold the two parts together. Unlike a model that is simply slipped between the pages, this system allows the bookmark to remain attached to the page when the book is moved or carried, without having to fold the corner.

Origin and lore
Gryffindor is one of the four houses at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. It was founded by Godric Gryffindor, one of the four wizards who founded the school. The house traditionally values qualities such as courage, bravery and determination. Its colours are scarlet and gold, whilst its emblematic animal is the lion, which is depicted on this bookmark.
Gryffindor pupils have a common room located in the Gryffindor Tower. During Harry Potter’s years at Hogwarts, Minerva McGonagall was the Head of Gryffindor. The Sorting Hat assigns students to this house in particular when it recognises a courageous and determined nature, even though these qualities may manifest themselves in different ways.
Among the most famous members of Gryffindor are Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, Ron Weasley, Neville Longbottom and Albus Dumbledore. The Weasley family is also very closely associated with this house. Gryffindor has historically had a major rivalry with Slytherin, a rivalry that plays a recurring role throughout the series.
The lion, the colours red and gold, and the heraldic coat of arms have become the main visual symbols of Gryffindor in the Wizarding World. This bookmark draws directly on this iconography to make the house instantly recognisable, whilst adapting it for a small accessory designed for reading.
