| Title | Vintage 19th c. marbled paper, Turkish antiqued pattern |
| Artist | Unknown |
| Date | 1888 |
| Descriptive Notes | Wolfe and Miura: Turkish antiqued
This pattern is created the same as a normal Turkish pattern is done. Once that is complete, a final step is to sprinkle the bath with medium to fine white (usually) drops of color, making it 'antiqued.'
The primary colors for this example are brown, blue and yellow ochre.
