bouquet marble
A drawn marble pattern formed in the manner of
small flowers side by side and used mainly for
marbled endpapers. The bouquet is generally
produced from two or three shades of brown and one
throwing of black. After the colors have been
dropped on, drawn with a stylus and combed in the
usual manner, a rake is drawn through the colors
right and left across the entire surface of the
size in such a manner that the teeth of the second
row trace exactly through the pattern left by the
teeth of the first row. A somewhat different
pattern is produced by treating the colors in the
same manner but omitting the marbling comb and
spreading the drops of color only with a stylus
into very narrow cross lines followed by raking.
