Descripción del artículo del vendedor

As new condition oversized (folio - over 12 inches tall) red boards with white front cover and spine lettering, contained in an as new condition color illustrated dust jacket. Includes Forward by Jack Lenor Larsen; Preface; Acknowledgments; Introduction; Glossary; Ruth Funk Center for Textile Arts; Editor's Note; and About the Photographer. Profusely illustrated with color photographs. Also includes a bound-into-the-volume matching red satin ribbon page marker. "Explore the exciting world of textiles with designer-adventurer Ruth E. Funk. Collecting handmade ethnic textiles gathered from her extensive international travels, scouring antique shops for vintage pieces and sourcing interesting materials from her interior design contacts, Ruth has become the ultimate "creator of cloth." She intuitively combines handwoven pieces, appliques, embroidery, braids, ribbons, fabric swatches and luxury silk panels of cross-cultural origin, transforming them into modern, eclectic art compositions. One small piece of cloth can become aesthetic inspiration for Ruth's couture jackets, coats, vests and jewelry. Each is born from a treasured piece of cloth to envelop a unified visual theme, a mood, a tone. Ruth's beautifully embellished collection exhibits a hybrid quality of patchwork design - a refined assemblage - displaying age-old techniques. Colorful, abstract and uninhibited, her fiber art designs are original and exude a dramatic flair reminiscent of theatrical costume, with a nod to personal adornment.Ruth's legacy is centered on creating visually engaging wearable art and handmade jewelry by recycling existing textiles made from time-honored ancestral techniques that have been lost and under-appreciated. Her remarkable body of work will be periodically showcased for future generations in the Ruth Funk Center for Textile Arts on the Florida Institute of Technology campus in Melbourne, Florida." - From the inner front and rear jacket flaps. …

Descripción de la tienda

Vero Beach Books is an antiquarian bookseller with a constantly updated inventory of rare out-of-print books, signed books, children's books, plus a large inventory of ephemeral items such as major U.S. city newspapers going back 100 years and more, golden and silver age fine condition comic books (soon to be added), and many other ephemeral items as well as much more recent popular volumes. We have been in business for 25 years, originally known as Emerson Books (named after one of our owner's favorite authors, to wit, Ralph Waldo Emerson) located back then in Westport, Connecticut. That said, we are here to serve you, to offer you fine quality items that are conservatively described so that you will always be pleasantly surprised and delighted with your purchase. Twenty-five years in the bookselling business has borne out our stellar service oriented reputation; the only difference is that now we are located in the almost always sunny and warm climate of Vero Beach, Florida. Again, we are here to serve you and, as was the case when we were previously known on ABEBooks.com as Emerson Books, we will continue to offer our very popular 100% free search service for those hard to find books rare and out of print books. Oftentimes we are also able to obtain these rare finds at very good discounts to our customers' so it is always worth contacting us in such cases!
