[QUOTE="Shangas, post: 8530326, member: 360"]And yes, definitely ivory. Paper-folders have to be chunkier to withstand the force of pressing and creasing the paper. If you used a page-turner for that, it'd just snap in half. On the other hand, page-turners have to be really thin, so that you can slide them between the pages of a large book, without damaging the pages and turning the leaves (that's the whole point they were created). You have a beautiful piece :)[/QUOTE]
