#marbledpaper

New collection coming soon to the shop! In this new collection, I kept experimenting with adding weak acids to the colors and different patterns. Somehow, my mood for colors this time got me stuck with greys and browns, contrasting with bright hues and metallics. Let me know if I should keep experimenting with the acid effect, or should I let go and move on to something new. The release date for this new collection is next Friday, April 11th, at 12 UTC.

This #marbledmonday feature is extra fancy, with some bright marbled endpapers and a gorgeous marbled leather binding.

Unlike tree calf and other stained leather bindings, which are decorated after the book is bound, this whole piece of leather was marbled first, and then cut to size for the binding.

A true marbley beauty inside and out!
