I have four wonderful sheets of this striking vintage marbled paper and I'm selling them individually. Each sheet displays the same dramatic hand marbled design in rich shades of cobalt blue, navy, dusty blue, burgundy, and touches of olive green. The flowing pattern creates a wonderful sense of movement and depth, making these sheets equally suited to bookbinding, framing, decorative arts, journal making, cartonnage, and unique wall art handmade.
MEASUREMENTS: Approximately 25 inches by 20 inches ~

Marbled papers such as these were created by floating pigments on a prepared bath and carefully transferring the design onto paper. This centuries-old technique produces patterns that can never be exactly duplicated, making each sheet a unique piece of decorative art.
Uses include:
~ Bookbinding ~ Journal and scrapbook projects ~ Framing as wall art ~ Cartonnage and box making ~ Drawer and cabinet lining ~ Lampshades and decorative arts ~ Mixed media artwork
These beautiful papers remain as inspiring today as when they were first made. A wonderful example of traditional decorative paper artistry and an antique of the future that can be handed down through generations.
