Screenused shell scroll

Hello xenites! I have realized that I had never posted before my scroll seen in various episodes from the Xena: Warrior princess tv series. The first appearance I remember was in the episode "Here comes...Miss Amphipolis" from season 2 hold by the the Pageant Matron when she first walks in the room. 

  

After, we saw it in the episode "Little problems" from season 5 hold by Aphrodite played by Alexandra Tydings at the beginning of the episode and after seen again in the hands of the bouncer at the club door of the twins theme party, oil wrestling competition, that Gabrielle and Aphrodite are trying to get into.

It appear to be made out of some type of recycled paper or even could be made out of papyrus. The scroll is hand painted and trimmed with leather where it attaches to the wood dowels, it has resin shells on each end of the dowels to finish out with an middle ages effect.

Hand written detailed view.

The scroll is in mint condition after more than 25 years that was seen on screen
