    Description

    Album dimensions are 9 x 12 inches.
    While clearly showing its age, this album is still gorgeous. The inlaid flower design on the cover is a work of art, and the hand-painted gold designs in the corners are in good condition. The lacquer has crackling and the coloring on the flowers has worn areas. The flyleaves have an intricate design of trailing vines, spiraling dots, and vertical bars; they are in good condition. This album has been passed down in the family of the elderly Indiana woman who donated it.
