Some darkening along one edge of the lid

Antique Graphite Drawing of Decorative Borders pencil doodles These were handcrafted by NilsI just thought this was lovely I assume just done as a practice exercise of sorts, though perhaps working out just the right border to draw, or paint or wallpaper or carve? around something special. Whatever the case, quite a lot of work went into this alone! 7 3 4 x 5 3 4. Graphite on paper. Fairly good condition, with general smudging soiling and unevenness to the top edge.
