This is an Islamic bookmark of exceptional quality made from real wood veneer.  The Arabic calligraphy depicted on this Islamic bookmark is the Bismillah, which is often translated as "In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful".  This phrase, which in fact is a succinct prayer, is often recited by Muslims before they begin any task.  Its utterance blesses the action that the person is about to undertake.

Stylised Arabic calligraphy like that designed for this bookmark was often the work or great Islamic calligraphers.  Calligraphers would often go through many design iterations before arriving at a perfected design that they were happy with.  The style you see drawn here is in the traditional Thuluth script style and is one of the more famous designs found for the Bismillah.
