<p>Oversized shipping might be required. Book has a bump at the top of the front cover, about an inch wide. There is light bumping and bowing to the corners. Light rubbing can be seen on the covers as well. The cover page has an old owner's name in pen. Aside from the items listed this is a very good copy that remains well-bound with bright pages that are crisp and unmarked. The dust jacket has mild rubbing along with mild shelving wear with the expected amount of creasing and tiny closed tears. A small sticker can be seen at the bottom of the inner left flap. Other than the items detailed, this is a good, sharp copy that remains mostly crisp with the cover text and image clear, vibrant, and now protected via archival cover.</p>

Ormolu: the work of Matthew Boulton

Phaidon [distributed by Praeger Publishers, New York

<p>Nicholas Goodison revisits his earlier exhaustive study of Boulton's ormolu ornaments and his manufactory at Soho, and unearths new and previously unpublished material. This book covers the factory between the years 1768 and 1782, the methods by which ornaments were designed, made and marketed and Boulton's own keen interest in promoting the business. It is a comprehensive account of the range of vases, candelabra, clock cases and other ormolu ornaments and of the customers who bought them. The author has once again combined meticulous research with a narrative style that makes the book a pleasure to read. Most of the photographs have been taken especially for this study, and the ornaments are described and illustrated in greater detail and in larger numbers than ever before.</p>
