Title

Divini Platonis Opera omnia,

Description

The binding of this work has been elaborately blind-stamped with a number of decorative tools. Note the manuscript waste visible at the top of the spine; again, materials were reused wherever possible to add in the binding process, especially in areas that would not be visible to the customer, such as the inner covers. The lighter calf juxtaposed with darker areas would suggest that this binding was originally dyed a darker brown and there has been either a fading or reversion back to the original colour due to sunlight exposure and/or the mere passage of time.
