Meg's Purple Fret

Like Sir Marcus' scroll this one is done in a Mid-14th Century English design inspired by pieces in the Bodlien Library Collection.  The calligraphy was completed in gall ink, gouache & 23k gold raised gilding on Vellum.  Sir Marcus is an exceptional artisan in his own right and in exchange for this piece I received a fine intricately carved gold ring set with a Sapphire done in Elizabethan design.
