Description:
Paris: Delarue, 1850. Original Wraps. Orig. printed light gray wrappers chipped with slight loss at one lower corner (front cover) and one upper corner (back cover). Very good.. 272 pages in text. 15 x 10 1/2 cm. 25 numbered full-page plates (some double-paged), plus 32 supplemental plates numbered A-Z, AA-FF, with additional plates and illustrations within the text - all in black and white. Text in French, interior clean, initial decorated letters, Glossary of Principal Terms. Practically speaking, artificial flowers differed only in a single feature -- whereas real flowers wilt, 18th and 19th century cloth, paper or wax blooms were relatively imperishable. In the Victorian era artificial flowers were ubiquitous, a woman's garland for all seasons including her death. Initially fashioning flowers was considered an art and craft explicitly reserved for genteel women. Ex-library, internal marking only, discreet one centimeter round on verso of some plates.

Description:
Prato: Ditta Ruggero Benelli, 1900. First edition. Hardcover. Panels are faux-diced shagreen, gilt lettering first panel, two brass rivets front cover for hanging the display. Very good. 27.5 x 13 cm. Salesman's sample advertising display for Super-Iride, 48 dyed sample mounted, eight panels bound accordion style, each panel as noted previously, folds out to approximately 40 inches when displayed. Color plates mounted on first and last panels with 48 dyed fabric sample in a wide range of colors, lettering in black and red. Super-Iride solid dyes are Azo synthetic, more stable than vegetable, and/or aniline dyes provide a distinct advantage for coloring wool, cotton and silks as they are highly resistant to sun and repeated washing. This brand is perhaps best known for the advertising poster of a looming red devil drawing forth a rainbow of color from a wooden barrel depicted here in the first panel. Scuffing to extremities, back cover with, slight loss of shagreen at back cover.
