Old Parchment Background for PowerPoint in Pale Ivory with Faint Creases

Free old parchment background for PowerPoint in pale ivory beige with faint creases and light mottling. HD 16:9.

Created by Elena Gidura · October 19, 2026

This old parchment background for PowerPoint is a pale ivory beige sheet with faint creases, hairline scratches and light mottling that stays even from edge to edge. I kept the tone light and the marks subtle, so dark text reads anywhere on the slide, good for letters, scrolls and story pages.
