Softcover. Zustand: Good. Immediate dispatch from Somerset. Nice older book in good condition. Pages in good condition. Two cover pages have the name cut of corner. No notes or highlighting. See images. Fantastic book. About the book >.>.> The title of this book may seem a paradox; everyone has seen faded chintz. But the earliest "chints" that came to Europe from India were colorfast, and the few examples of these that have survived the centuries, though mellowed, are richly colored today. The Eastern knowledge of mordant dyeing was slow to pass to the West, and many of the first English, Continen- tal, and later American-made chintzes copied the old patterns, but could not equal the Indian dyes. Some of the treasured chintzes our ancestors pieced and appliqued so lovingly have changed their hue, sometimes drastically, yet the original, often magnificent bedcoverings these quilters created are little diminished thereby. The glory of the quilts remains unfading. (LL).…

Hardcover. Zustand: Good. Immediate dispatch from Somerset. Nice older book in good condition. Some light tanning due to age. Plates bright and vivid. Year 1930. Hardcover. English. See images for condition. About the book >.>.> During the growing commercialism and trade enterprise of the middle of the nineteenth century the high standard of design in decorative art may have shown signs of decadence, but it is to the credit of this country that it withstood any inclination to participate in the extravagances of style so prevalent on the Continent. Differences of opinion may exist regarding standards of taste in design and decoration, national and individual, but it is generally admitted that the work of the English craftsmen and designers from the seventeenth to the nineteenth century is characterized in all our decorative arts by a sane sense of proportion and lack of crudity. My best thanks are due to the various owners and firms who have generously permitted me to illustrate this book by the reproduction of specimens from their collections, and due acknowledgment has been made at the foot of each plate. It is to be noted that the copyright of many of the chintz designs is held by the firms ment.…
