Right now? Sure haha. That’s a little intense.
So, azurite was used commonly in several European countries. The vellum and ink are not determined to be from a particular region. The ink used was waterproof and there could be a practical reason there. The pigments and ink were relatively common and inexpensive as well.
It could have been made in Italy or elsewhere, not necessarily Ireland. I said the manuscript is likely at least partially based in Ireland, not necessarily written in Ireland (although translation leads me to believe it was)
Copper alloy quills could account for the additional cuprite found.
