Nonpareil Marbled Paper

A small sheet of antique marbled paper that probably was originally intended for use as an endpaper in a book.

For examples of the various marbling patterns--like this "nonpareil"--see the list of Marbled Paper Patterns that's part of the University of Washington Libraries' Decorated and Decorative Paper Collection.

See below for other marbled papers used for a valentine, calling card, and book cover.
