English. 285x225mm. 3.5kg. Very good, in good slipcase; some occasional spotting to pages, occasional slight wear to a few pile samples; some light wear to bindings, light wear and fading to spines, outer hinge of volume two beginning to crack; light wear, toning and marks to slipcase but remains firmer than usually found; a nice set. A scarce colour sample book, with all samples present. These three volumes were produced by the British Colour Council with an intention to standardise colours across the interior decoration trade. A decorator could use their copy of the dictionary to specify to a manufacturer exactly which colour they wished to achieve. The books became an invaluable aid and, although over 7,000 copies were printed, few survive because they were used so extensively as working tools. Each of the 378 colours are shown on three surfaces - matt, gloss and pile fabric (carpet). There are 35 colours where no pile fabric sample is included because 'it was not considered advisable to dye that particular colour on pile fabric owing to the possibility of fading or discolouring in a comparatively short space of time'. Volume 3 includes a list of the colour names and their history. Beaux Books specialises in fine and rare books on art and culture in the 20th and 21st centuries. We welcome questions about our books and we are happy to provide any extra images. Buy with confidence from an experienced bookseller. 1949. First edition. Copy no. 1883 from an edition of 7,500.
