I have an obsession these days with things that age with use. Items that develop a patina are of particular interest. It's interesting to see something visually change due to you using it. I saw this copper bookmark at the de Young Museum in San Francisco some time back. I picked it up for a few different reasons including:
- It uses the same dot matrix structure and copper material as the museum exterior.
- It's copper.
- It would likely age with use.
Sure enough I was right! the bookmark hasn't changed much yet, but is starting to show the signs of use. I bet it will look really interesting in a few years.
