Marbled Endpaper

Marbled Endpaper is built from the inked, decorated face of a fine antique book leaf — not the blank rag base, but the saturated peacock-teal size that carries the pattern. Pigments float on a thickened gum-tragacanth bath, are drawn into combed "eyes" and feathered nonpareil swirls, then lifted onto paper.

The palette is mineral and matte: deep peacock teal ground, a brighter teal-blue current, crimson vermilion, antique gold veining, and a single light combed highlight. Type is hand-bound and humanist — Cormorant and EB Garamond for Latin, Noto Serif JP honoring the suminagashi lineage. Everything flows; nothing is gridded, neon, or flat.

「云石纹环衬」取材于古籍精装内侧那张上了色的装饰衬页——不是空白的棉纸底，而是 承载花纹、饱和的孔雀蓝绿矾水面。颜料浮在加稠的黄蓍胶浆上，用梳齿耙出羽状的「眼」 与细密的回旋纹，再覆纸提起。这是土耳其大理石纹（ebru）与日本墨流（suminagashi） 两支传统汇入欧洲装帧的产物。

配色取自矿物颜料，温润而不反光：深孔雀蓝绿为底，一道更亮的蓝绿暗流穿行，朱砂的 绯红、古旧的金线，以及一抹梳出的浅色高光。字体走手工装帧的人文衬线——拉丁文用 Cormorant 与 EB Garamond，并以 Noto Serif JP 致敬墨流的日本血脉。一切都在流动， 绝无网格、霓虹或扁平色块。
