In den WarenkorbZustand: Very good plus. Beautifully bound Edwardian edition of the Christmas classic, featuring a Vellucent vignette binding by Cedric Chivers of Bath. After the success of A CHRISTMAS CAROL, Dickens continued to produced "little Christmas books" in order to meet demand that swelled for the holiday season, then as now the busie…st time for booksellers. First published in 1845, CRICKET ON THE HEARTH is the third in the series, featuring a drama of domestic happiness that picks up on themes from the Ghost of Christmas Past scene in A CHRISTMAS CAROL. This copy was bound by Chivers of Bath in the trademark style he developed that was also a landmark in the history of book design: the Vellucent binding. In this technique, a painted design is protected by the addition of a layer of vellum so thin that it is translucent, giving it the appearance of a delicate glass window. A striking copy of the beloved Victorian tale. 7'' x 4.5''. Contemporary tan morocco by Cedric Chivers stamped with elegant gilt ornaments, central Vellucent title vignette to front board. Top edge gilt, marbled endpapers. Illustrated by Brock with 8 full-page color plates as well as black-and-white vignettes. 171, [1] pages. Slight fading to spine, faint spotting to boards, rubbing to vignette. Some instances of foxing to interior. Hinges firm.

In den WarenkorbZustand: Fine. Second edition. Two volumes bound in one, small octavo (6 15/16 x 4 1/16 inches; 177 x 103 mm.). xxii, 294, [1, imprint], [1, blank];, xii, 254, [1, imprint], [1, blank] pp. Two engraved frontispieces and one hundred and sixty-two black & white illustrations, including decorative head and tailpieces, all by Charle…s E. Brock. Bound ca. 1906 in a fine pastel "vellucent" binding by Cedric Chivers (stamp-signed in gilt on rear lower turn-in), with a delicately hand-painted 'Art Nouveau' floral design. This binding is No. LXXXV on page 34 of the Cedric Chivers catalog "Books in Beautiful Bindings." The front cover with three red flowers and a green vine design enclosing the title "The Essays And The Last Essays of Elia. Charles Lamb". Lower cover with a similar design but with just one red flower. Smooth spine similarly decorated and lettered in watercolor and gilt, gilt ruled turn-ins, mottled pale-green liners and end-papers, all edges gilt. Neat ink inscription dated "Xmas 1906" on front blank. A very fine example housed in the original fleece-lined, green cloth slipcase (missing the movable spine panel). Patented in 1898, Chivers's "vellucent" bindings departed from traditional methods of creating hand-painted vellum bindings. The usual approach was to merely bind a book in vellum and then paint on a design, but this is prone to rubbing and flaking and such examples are often now found chipped and deteriorated. In the 18th century Chivers's great predecessor, Edwards of Halifax, painted in reverse on the underside of translucent vellum, thereby providing a layer of protection for the design. His technique was not widely copied and almost vanished with his death, and it was not until the 1890s that Chivers developed his own similar method for protecting the design underneath the vellum itself - the backing sheet of the vellum was painted, which was then covered in vellum which had been shaved to transparency. The vellum was then tooled in gilt, on occasion incorporating additional mother-of-pearl and onlays. The books which Chivers thus bound have always been a favorite of collectors, and usually still present well, the vellum having served its purpose of protecting the design for many decades, as Chivers intended. Chivers was also known to have employed a great many craftswomen at his bindery in Portway: "forty women for folding, sewing, mending, and collating work, and in addition, five more women worked in a separate department, to design, illuminate, and colour vellum for book decoration, and to work on embossed leather. These five were Dorothy Carleton Smyth, Alice Shepherd, Miss J.D. Dunn, Muriel Taylor, and Agatha Gales" (Tidcombe). This book brings together Charles Lamb's Essays of Elia (first published in 1823) with the subsequent volume Last Essays of Elia (issues in 1833). The accessible and conversational essays were published under the pseudonym Elia, inspired by an Italian man that Lamb had known at the South Sea House, and had appeared serially in The London Magazine between 1820 and 1825. Despite his struggles with mental illness, Charles Lamb (1775-1834) would be celebrated for his literary contributions, producing a range of material from essays to poems. Lamb belonged to an active literary circle which included Percy Bysshe Shelley and Lord Byron. Fine.

A collection of Washington Irving's short stories, including his most famous and beloved tales, Rip Van Winkle and The Legend of Sleepy Hollow (narrated by the fictional Dutch historian Diedrich Knickerbocker).

The collection was the first American work of short stories to gain international success and popularity" and while "most of the book's 30 off pieces concern Irving's impressions of England, six chapters deal with American subjects."

A fantastic vellucent binding by the noted bookbinder Cedric Chivers. Chivers created this technique of bookbinding which involved an artist painting on a thin medium. The desig…ns included inlays of mother of pearl or gold leaf. This was then overlaid with a specially-treated sheet of vellum so that the designs were translucent. There are some beautiful inlays to this work on the front board, including a pearl inlay to the 'I' of the title.Chivers' associate H Granville Fell designed many of the bindings, and the shop hired a number of female artists including Dorothy Carleton Smyth to paint the scenes onto the binding.The design to this board consists of four kneeling saints within a decorative surround reminiscent of medieval illuminated manuscripts.Binder's stamp to the rear pastedown, Cedric Chivers of Bath.This is a 1908 reprint of the crown 4to special edition issued by Chatto and Windus in London.Translated into English from the original Latin by Richard Whytford and illustrated throughout from designs by W Russell Flint.
