A charming antique French Roman Catholic missal published in Limoges by Paul Mellottée. Bound in its original warm brown leather with embossed decorative borders, this pocket-sized prayer book was intended for daily Mass and personal devotion.

The pages display beautiful period typography and delicate Art Nouveau ornamentation, making it as lovely to display as it is to collect. Gentle wear to the leather and light foxing reflect more than a century of careful use and add to its authentic character.

A beautiful addition to a stack of antique books, a bedside vignette, or a European-inspired collection.
