Around the turn-of-the-century in the Peking area, match- makers were given a pair of silk embroidered squares made by a prospective & available gir…l to be handed over to a young male as an example of her charm & skill. In turn, the male & his family would consider this candidate for marriage.

Each is gaily col- ored, and executed with the girl's best skill [with her mot- her's help?] Each is a matching pair, different patterns,but related and suitable for the "wedding pillow."

Añadir al carritoThe scene is framed by an oval decorative black glass matte with floral decorations in the corners, in a decorative wood & plaster gilt frame. Captioned beneath the image, on the glass, is "Kezia, Wilkes, 1814". The silk is deteriorated in some areas where there is no embroidery, condition is otherwise generally fine and the ima…ge very strong. Possibly an old testament scene. The image is about 17 x 14.5 inches, the frame measures 24 x 21 inches. The label on the rear is for A. Gardner, "Carver, Gilder, Looking Glass and Picture Frame Manufacturer". This appears to be a memorial item, the black glass oval insert presumably created by the framer, with the subject's name lettered beneath the image. [This is an oversize item, and normal postage rates do not apply. Large framed artworks are sometimes available for pickup only.].

Añadir al carrito24mo (binding size 98 x 58 mm). Etched and engraved title, 24 pages (a single 12-leaf quire A), [16]-page calendar for 1785 bound in middle of quire, 12 etched and engraved ?plates? (printed on 6 conjugate bifolia), rule page borders throughout (one or two borders shaved). A fine copy, in a contemporary case binding of embroider…ed ivory faille silk over binders? boards, both covers with a central wheat sheaf of couched purl and vermeil sequins in a pot of green threads, symmetrical purl ribbons and sprays above and below, the ground with small green flowers and sequin accents, double outer border of sequins and intertwining metallic thread, spine with saltire design of metallic thread and sequins, salmon watered silk doublures with hammered vermeil ribbon borders, framing a mirror on the upper cover, and on the lower cover a pocket, free endpapers of pink on gold brocade paper (printed on one side only), gilt edges. (Outer corner of front cover very slightly stained and fraying, a ribbon border inside lower cover detaching, the mirror intact but its tin[?] backing turned to powder and shedding slightly through the spine.) *** A delightful almanac in a fetching embroidered binding which expresses the golden sun of the harvest, abundance and joy. In pictures and verse this almanach galant relates love?s approaches, evasions and eventual conquest using an extended military metaphor. Hence captions like ?the diligent vigil, the gracious combat, marauding cupids, a lucky rally, the double attack, the capitulation,? etc., grace the hardly warlike images. The women, in petticoats, ribbons, and flowery hats, wear the latest fashions. In an unusual modern touch, the image of the etched title, showing a couple in a boat with a fortress and galleon in the background, continues behind the title lettering. The engraved illustrations of courting and sometimes (modestly) contorting couples are in dark vivid impressions. In this copy (unlike the Grand-Carteret copy) the sixth and seventh plates were printed on the same sheet in the wrong order, and thus the captions are mismatched. The embroidered cover of the binding was applied slightly awry on the lower cover. OCLC lists the BnF copy only. Cf. Savigny de Moncorps, Almanachs illustrés du XVIIIe siècle (1909), no. 55 (p. 104); Meunié, Bibliographie de quelques almanachs illustrés des XVIIIe et XIXe siècles (1906); Grand-Carteret 1143: the same almanac (with full-page illustration) but bearing the title of the 1793 Goguettes Parisiennes (his no. 1192).

Añadir al carrito24mo (binding size 96 x 55 mm). [80] pp. Rule page borders (fore-edges cut close, some borders shaved, small hole in title). Text block stitched into a contemporary gold-embroidered case binding with two original watercolor drawings: both covers with large asymmetrical curving goldwork design couched on a gold basketwork ground,… embroidered on a plain textile (visible at board edges), the design incorporating an abstract plant or cornucopia, and framing on each cover a different watercolor emblem of fidelity, painted on glazed paper (or possibly vellum): on the front cover a putto holds a bow and arrow, while a dog rests behind him, below a neat manuscript caption in majuscules, ?Fidel jusqu?à la mort?; on the rear cover a blindfolded putto with his quiver on his back is led by a dog on a pink leash through a coastal landscape, with caption ?La Fidelité me conduit?; the covers edged with vermeil strips, spine with sinuous couched goldwork band, edges gilt, dark purple silk liners; housed in a contemporary two-part morocco pull-off case, lined in color-blocked paper. In near-perfect condition (very slight darkening of some of the goldwork on lower cover).*** A superb example of one of the earliest and most sought-after types of French luxury almanac bindings. A single, probably Parisian atelier, active in the 1760s, seems to have been responsible for a group of innovative small bindings featuring small painted love-emblems on vellum, enclosed in glowing rococo frames composed of padded fretwork covered in gold-wrapped thread which entirely hides the plain textile cover. These inventive and successful bindings inspired emulators, paving the way for an explosion of imaginative almanac bindings over the next three decades, incorporating silk, embroidery, paintings, glass, mica, metal foil, and other materials, as well as the more traditional leathers, arranged in an enticing variety of patterns and designs and creating a full-fledged industry of these little books, produced by stationer-binders, who sub-contracted their textile bindings to professional embroiderers. It may seem extraordinary that such an elaborate binding would be used for a small, cheap publication like the present almanac, printed by Léonard Cuissart soon after 5 November 1762 (date of the printing permission on the last page). Containing songs, proverbs, and a calendar of Saints? days, it is an unillustrated precursor to the more elaborate almanachs galants produced during the next few decades. Like them, it would have been given as a New Year?s gift (étrenne), and indeed a love-gift. This fact explains the apparent paradox of such a labor-intensive production method for the cover decoration of an ephemeral publication: ?The status of gifts held by these little works . quickly conferred upon them, in the eyes of an elite clientele, the double role of bibelot [bauble] and of an object of gallantry likely to become a precious souvenir, and thus worthy of receiving a decoration formerly reserved only for the most precious publications? (Fabienne le Bars, no. 35b, Éloge de la rareté, trans.). It was in the 1760s that the fashion for such palm-sized treasure books first surfaced. A few later imitations of this ?goldwork? style are known, of somewhat inferior workmanship, on almanacs from the 1770s (see, for example, no. 35b in the Bibliothèque nationale de France 2014 exhibition catalogue Eloge de la rareté). The frequent misattribution of this type of goldwork binding to the Low Countries seems to be based on a few examples of those emulative bindings from the 1770s, found on almanacs from Liège (see, for example, Livres en broderie, no. 176). Whether or not those later imitations were indeed produced in or near Liège, the original examples of these goldwork bindings, such as this one, were almost certainly produced in Paris, as is evident from the almanacs they cover: see, for example, a group of four such almanacs, offered by Patrice Rossignol, in his catalogue 1.

Añadir al carritoUnrecorded account of the life and works of the blessed Torello of Poppi (1202-1282), a Franciscan hermit in Tuscany. Although here called "San Torello", he was beatified in the 18th century but has not been canonized. Accounts of his miracles saving small children led people to treat him as a patron of pregnant women (pp. 3-12)…, with directions for a nine-day exercise for pregnant women to invoke a fortunate pregnancy, with a mediation devoted to San Torello on pp. 13-30. On pp. 31-34 is a responsory in verse, to be recited at the tomb of San Torello, followed by a method to invoke the mediation of San Torello, some citations from the Bible and short prayers (pp. 35-39).Very good copy in a beautiful contemporary embroidered binding.l Not in KVK; WorldCat. Beautifully embroidered contemporary pink silk over paperboards, with flowers and a border along the edges of both sides, and the initials "CM" in centre of front cover, preserved in a modern marbled slipcase. Pages: 39 pp.

Añadir al carritoA charming mid-19th-century French embroidered binding. The geometric pattern of the design, executed in interlaced gilt, green, pink, and purple threads, is rather unusual for this period, when figurative motifs were the most popular. The contents of the notebook span several years, approximately from 1844 to 1856. Included are… accounts of money paid, spent, and gifted, contacts and addresses of people in Paris and Lille (one recurring multiple times), and personal notes. The interests and concerns, the frequent appearance of female names as acquaintances (such as Pauline, Amelie, and Marie), and the style of the binding, strongly suggest that the owner was a Parisian gentlewoman. The accounts suggest that her job involved buying and supplying furniture to customers. For example, she records advancing money to Pauline "for her pendulum" and paying her for a "mobilier de dames" (a lady's dressing table). The owner appears to have been fascinated by clocks; on another page, she copied a quote from Voltaire: "L'univers m'embarrasse et je ne puis songer que cette horloge existe et n'ait pas d'horloger" ("The universe troubles me, and I cannot imagine that this clock exists without a clockmaker"). Science also features among her interests. A curious note concerns the analysis of the contents of the "eau de puits foré" (water from drilled wells) carried out by "Deville", likely the chemist Henry Deville; it includes a breakdown of chemical components (i.e. sulfates, sodium chloride) and their weight. This was copied from a contemporary published report. Another page contains a reference to the contents of a botanical publication, Histoire des plantes de Dauphiné by Dominique Villard (1786-1789). Most of the other notes relate to everyday life. The address of Monsieur Paterson, a dentist with offices at 396 rue St Honore, is followed by a positive review of his services: "sans douleur a un prix modere" (painless at a moderate price). On another page is the account of a journey by omnibus from Paris to Dole, passing through Dijon, with times. Right below is a note copied from a contemporary almanac concerning an English company called "Defender", based at Boulevard des Italiens 4, offering advantageous rates for life annuities. Duodecimo (135 x 90 mm). Three paper bifolia and one cardboard bifolium held in place by a green silk tie, seven (of eight) unnumbered leaves, one paper leaf removed or absent. Contemporary green roan, smooth spine, covers bordered with a gilt floral roll enclosing embroidered panel decorated with a geometric design of variously coloured interlaced bands, cream silk moirè endpapers, the pastedowns with pockets, leather loops at fore-edge holding a wooden pencil with metal finial, which keeps the binding closed. Housed in a green cloth flat-back box with black leather label. Gilt slightly darkened, couple of loose threads, the embroidered panels otherwise beautifully preserved and bright, short superficial split at head of front joint, occasional spot of foxing. A very good example.

Añadir al carrito[China, n.d. c 1910-20]. An indigo backed embroidered pocket bib, hand stitched, nicely done, 39.5 x 39.5 cm., very good, entirely hand-made, clean solid item. OBSCURE ! Backed by rough woven cotton, dyed with indigo, with a black cotton triangualar cloth, profusely hand embroiderd, with applique cloths. The design of the black…applique cloth is covered with a profusion of flowers, animals, butterflies & three human figures, a central male figure with 2 girls on either side. Each is elaborately clothed, wiht individual small pieces of different colored cloth, neatly done, with great creativity and unique use of very tiny stitches. The whole piece is attached on two sides to the blue cloth, thus making the top an open pocket. The top and sides are likely tied with a cord around the body. These were used on young children as an apron/bib, or as an undergarment for young girls, keeping their breasts protected. Ephemeral pieces of period folk clothing seldom survive, this being quite SCARCE but a wonderful example of this form of art, textile & clot- hing. A charming work, with a colorful dog and cat included.
