gold hearts and numbers

hearts made from an antique maths book: "A key to the complete practical Arithmetician" by Thomas Keith; the 1846 or 1901 edition. So either Victorian or Edwardian....but originally published in 1790
The maths heart sits on a delicate gilded paper heart.

a bit bookish

Currently, on eBay I have quite a lot of items listed under books and magazines...any one who looks at my listings will not be surprised about the magazines, but I've rarely listed books. A curious mix.
