What Our Customers Say...

Description

Decorative Binding

With a leather spine, initials H.H. in gilt.

Wooden boards depict an inset engraving of four people with merchant wears, such as fruits. Scene appears to be Chinese on account of the pagodas and decorative borders.

With embellished borders depicting blossoms.

Condition

Original wooden boards with quarter leather spine. Leather spine is a touch rubbed to the head and tail. Boards are a little worn to the edges, but inset scenes are in excellent condition. Prior contents have been removed, leaving internals a little unsightly in preparation for future contents.

Very Good
