Lovely, Perfect Condition Green and Black Carved Stone Book green and silver and became a central figureSo 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.
