I am not aware that old vellum/parchment takes on color because of age. I would suppose that sponging on tea or lemon juice or rusty water on a parchment manuscript would cause the ink to run and blur. I have already mentioned examining 13th and 14th century parchment books in the Catholic...

‘The parchment is mostly sheepskin and has yellowed badly with age; yet in spite of this it is still rather transparent, so that the writing on the opposite side of the leaf is often visible. Some goatskin leaves occur, but they are usually hard to distinguish positively. In general it may be said that the flesh side of the goatskin leaves is whiter, and thus the difference in color between the two sides is greater. I have succeeded in seeing in a dozen or more leaves the branching veins characteristic of goatskin. Rough spots showing the hair roots sometimes occur, but only very rarely extend into the written portion of the page. The spots are smaller and nearer together in the goatskin leaves. A few weak spots and holes were mended by pasting on thin pieces of parchment; a good example may be seen on p. 337 of the Facsimile.
