{"product_id":"french-miniature-notebook-saint-valery","title":"Antique French Miniature Souvenir Notebook Saint-Valery-en-Caux","description":"\u003cp data-start=\"128\" data-end=\"552\"\u003eA wonderfully unusual antique French miniature notebook, complete with its original pencil, metal clasp, and gilt page edges. The front cover shows a scenic view of St Valery-en-Caux, falaise d’amont, giving this little object the added appeal of a Norman coastal souvenir. At just three inches tall, it has all the charm of a miniature book while functioning as a personal notebook or travel keepsake.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"554\" data-end=\"1063\"\u003eWhat makes this piece especially strong is the combination of scale and detail. The small fitted pencil, lined blank pages, clasp closure, and gilt edges give it a finished, thoughtful look that feels far more special than an ordinary pocket notebook. It works beautifully for collectors of miniature books, antique writing accessories, French souvenirs, and small decorative curiosities. It also displays exceptionally well closed or slightly opened, with the scenic cover image immediately catching the eye.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGood antique condition with age wear consistent with use and handling. The covers show rubbing, surface wear, and some natural discoloration from age. The clasp is present and closes, the pencil is present, and the pages are intact. The leaves appear blank and clean overall, with light age toning. A very appealing surviving example with honest wear.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Austyn Marie Design","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51089819369750,"sku":"AMD-02831","price":220.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0896\/4623\/5926\/files\/Drews_Books_3.3-3447.jpg?v=1773170277","url":"https:\/\/austynmariedesign.com\/products\/french-miniature-notebook-saint-valery","provider":"Austyn Marie Design","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
