Scalloped wrapping paper

$24.00
Scallop and marbling patterns were once popular decorative elements in bookbinding, especially for endpapers and edges of books. The marbling technique, which dates back to the 12th century, involves floating pigments on water and manipulating them into intricate, swirling designs that resemble marble. These patterns were then transferred to paper, creating one-of-a-kind, colorful pages that added a touch of luxury and craftsmanship to books. Scallop patterns, on the other hand, featured a repeating, curved motif reminiscent of overlapping shells, often used alongside marbling for a harmonious contrast. Together, these designs turned books into works of art, emphasizing the value of the book as both a literary and aesthetic object.

• Size: 28.75″ × 19.75″ (73 × 50.2 cm)
• Thickness: 70# uncoated text
