Very Old Worn Marbled Book Board - Dappled

I adore these old book covers purely for inspiration.  The way the paper and surface has worn over years to create this beautiful surface that only time and use delivers.

Always a privilege to study and own. I love to use them as base boards for styling and photography.  They also look lovely leant on a shelf or mantle like a painting or as part of a still life.

This board measures 21.5cm x 14cm 

Early 1800's.
