Lovely, Perfect Condition Green and Black Carved Stone Book green and silver without a missing bit that

without a missing bit that I can see

I  imagine it being thrown to the ground time and again in order for its owner/s to run off to play

medium: 4 3/4" cubed

including English walnuts that have been split

which give it a nice sense of history and age

Lovely, Perfect Condition Green and Black Carved Stone Book green and silver without a missing bit thatSo many carved marble books to find and love! And such a beauty this one, carved of what I believe is Lapis Lacedaemonius, with black stone for the nicely detailed spine, and at the corners too. Feels very Grand Tour to me. Very pretty. 4 1 4" x 2 3 8" x 3 4". Pretty much perfect condition.
