In den WarenkorbHet Boek der Psalmen, nevens de Gezangen bij de Hervormde Kerk van Nederland in gebruik. Door last van de Hoog Mogende Heeren Staaten Generaal der Vereenigde Nederlanden, Uit drie Berijmingen, In den jaare 1773, gekooren. Met de noodige daar in gemaakte veranderingen. With: Catechismus, Gebeden en Formulieren. 2 werken in 1 band…, n.p., 68 p. Zeldzaam miniatuur psalmboekje in originele schildpadband met 2 filigrain zilveren sloten, 4 filigrain zilveren scharnierstukken, zilveren rug en goud op snede boekblok, 32°. H. 8,2 x B. 5,5 x D. 2 cm. Een compleet en keurig exemplaar in een fraaie schildpadband met zilverbeslag. Kleine restauratie in de linkerbovenhoek van het voorplat. Het gebruik van het schild van de schildpad als bindmateriaal werd populair in de 17e en 18e eeuw en werd voornamelijk gebruikt voor het binden van religieuze geschriften, kleine Bijbels, gebedenboeken en geschenkboeken voor de gegoede burgerij. Het materiaal werd verkregen van uitheemse zeeschildpadden en was geliefd vanwege het uiterlijk, de glans en de zeldzaamheid. Minder dan 4 procent van de luxere banden die in Nederland werden gebonden in de 18e eeuw werd in ander materiaal dan leer en perkament gebonden. Deze banden werden gezien als luxer en waren duurder. Dit geldt temeer voor schildpad aangezien de schilden niet op grote schaal werden geïmporteerd, hierdoor bleef het materiaal kostbaar en alleen toegankelijk voor de rijken. 2 works in one binding, (engraved titlepage) n.p. 68 p. Contemporary miniature Tortoiseshell binding, with 2 silver clasps, 4 silver hinges, silver spine and gilt-edged text block, 32° H. 8,2 x L.5,5 x W. 2 cm. Dutch church book containing the Psalms -with musical notation- and the Forms. Attractive binding bound in black with ochre coloured flamed tortoiseshell with silver double clasp, 4 hinges, and silver spine. The clasps, hasps, and joints on the spine are identically decorated with ornamental designs around a pattern of leaves. The use of tortoiseshell as a bookbinding material became popular in the 17th and 18th centuries. It was primarily used to bind religious texts, small Bibles, prayer books, and gift books for the wealthy middle class. The material came from exotic marine turtles and was valued due to its beauty, shine, and rarity. -The name tortoiseshell can therefore be misleading because the material has nothing to do with land tortoises. Fewer than 4 percent of the luxury bindings made in the Netherlands in the 18th century were covered in materials other than leather and vellum. These bindings were regarded as richer and were more expensive. This is considered even more for tortoise shells since the shells were not imported in large amounts; due to this, the material remained expensive and only available for the rich. Minor repair in the upper left corner of the front cover. A firm and excellent early tortoiseshell binding. Literature: Dijstelberge, P. (2011). Papieren pracht uit de Amsterdamse Gouden Eeuw, p. 69-71 / Noordwijk, B. van (2006). Zondags Zilver. Drie eeuwen versierde kerkboekjes, p. 209-217 / Rijkelijkhuizen, M.J. (2010).

In den WarenkorbSilver filigree binding (82 x 60 mm., including spine). The covers of filigree volutes and curling tendrils with inset painted enamel oval centerpiece and heart-shaped corner-pieces showing putti in pastoral settings below love-related mottos in French (central plaque on front cover slightly damaged), both covers decorated with…ten glass ?amethysts?; hollow tubular filigree spine, pair of fore-edge clasps and catches, the silver binding mounted over later yellow silk-covered thin pasteboards, the yellow silk liners with pockets front and back; preserved in a modern morocco case. Containing a 20th-century illustrated manuscript on parchment, pasted in (partly loose).*** This silver binding with painted enamel plaques belongs to a group of similarly decorated late 17th- or 18th-century miniature bindings. Several are on late 17th-century printed books or 18th-century manuscripts which have an Italian connection, and although their style may have been imitated in various centers of book production, it seems likely that most of the bindings were produced in Italy. I know of 15 such bindings, including this one. Most are found on various late 17th-century editions of the Office of the Virgin, printed in Paris from the 1670s to the early 1690s, but including editions in Italian; these little Offices seem to have been produced at least in part for the Italian market. Two of the bindings were used for Hebrew manuscript prayerbooks produced in Italy. (A census is available on request: it expands on that drawn up and kindly shared by Dr. Jan Storm van Leeuwen, who published an earlier version in the catalogue of Patricia Pistner?s miniature book collection, A Matter of Size, no. 123.) All but one of the bindings are miniature (measuring approximately 82 x 55/58 mm.) and are adorned with 12 to 20 cut-glass ?jewels.? The silverwork is of two types: ten are filigree, with spiraling volutes, as in this binding, and five are in a floral ajouré or openwork design with stems, leaves and blossoms (as in the Pistner example). The enamel plaques are also of two types (not correlated with the two different silverwork types). The majority, eleven, show Christian religious figures, with no inscriptions; these are in at least two different styles, and were probably produced in different workshops. They are all found on editions of the Office of the Virgin, printed between 1672 and 1693, all but one in Paris. Four bindings (including this one) have secular plaques, painted in a rough, folk-art style, with putti and archaically spelled mottos relating to love. The other three bindings with secular motifs are the Pistner binding (which is empty), and two other filigree examples, both bound over Jewish or Hebrew manuscripts: one is in a private Swiss collection, and the other (in which the plaque inscriptions are in Italian) is held by Penn State University (acquired from us). All four of these ?secular? bindings have oddly shaped spines, some slightly deformed. This seems to be the result of reworking the spines to accommodate thinner text blocks than those for which they were originally intended. The design of the catches and joints of the present binding, and its filigree silverwork, are similar to the other filigree secular bindings. The plaques especially resemble those of the example in the Swiss collection; one of the central plaques shares the same inscription (here Rien m[?]arrest; in the other binding Rien m[?]arreste). However, the fine condition and perfectly rounded spine of this binding may also point to some 19th-century restoration. Bookbindings of silver and previous metal were kept and reused through generations, and thus often appear on much later books or manuscripts. This binding presently houses a 20th-century mildly erotic manuscript in French, on 10 vellum leaves, the title Cantique de Salomon in a crowned frame, the 9 following leaves containing amateurish pencil and watercolor drawings with one- or two-line captions, on rectos o.

In den WarenkorbZustand: Fine. A striking miniature book with a sterling silver front cover that has a relief portrait of Tennyson as most people remember him -- the elderly revered poet laureate. The gilt decoration and lettering on the spine is not to be given short shrift, for it remains miraculously bright. All edges are gilt but also red,…a bit like a fore-edge painting in terms of technique but without a picture. N.d., early 20th century, meaning the first decade, closer to 1900 than1910. Measuring 57 by 48 mm. viii, 1035, [2] pp. Silver front board, morocco spine and rear board.
