Re: Inorganic Picments and marbling on paper
Hi Ludwig, curious, but there is only one (supposedly) 15th-century marbled paper, published in the Met Musuem’s Deccan show catalogue, but since it lacks a clear provenance, it’s debatable. The earliest marbling is all mainly 16th-century.

Re: House paint
I agree with Susanne, but I would only add that what many vendors sell as Thai Marbled Papers seem to me made with various types of oil and latex-based house paints. Similarly, the incense packets and other marbled items manufactured by the Sri Auribindo Ashram in Pondicherry, India are made with si...

Is this the earliest reference to marbling on cloth?
This link is to an image of the fourth edition, but the first edition was apparently published in 1688, some years after White's death in 1671. https://books.google.com/books?id=lXlmA ... &q&f=false

Re: alternate size
Sorry Enid, I am just back and haven't had a chance to look.

There are a few recipes for other types of size in there...

Re: alternate size
Peggy Skycraft gave a presentation on sizing materials at the '92 IMG at Fort Mason in San Francisco. She gave out all sorts of formulas in a handy little list... but I will have to look for it (unless someone else beats me to it). Not sure if it was ever published either...
