Wonderful historic resource now available on-line!

I have referenced this wonderful booklet numerous times in the past, written by Malinda Florian Papp from Florian Papp Antiques in New York City. This brochure was prepared for an art exhibit of historic paper filigree pieces that they arranged in the 80's I believe. The brochure contains beautiful, full-colored photos of antique paper filigree pieces and historical information on the art of paper filigree.

Because of the continued demand for this booklet, which is out of print, Mindy decided to offer it as an electronic document. I received the file in my in-box yesterday and immediately contacted them for permission to upload it to Scribd.com, a file sharing site. Florian-Papp graciously extended permission...and the result is that everybody has instant access to this wonderful resource.


Enjoy!

Thanks for sharing! How interesting to note how styles have changed when it comes to quilling, yet so many of the techniques are still the same.

Thanks for sharing it. I have 2 copies of the book and often loan one of them out but I always worry that it will not return. I bet they'd make a mint if they reissued it.
