Antique English Stuart Silver - Types Forms / Illustrated Booklet

Description

EARLY STUART SILVER
, Her Majesty’s Stationary Office, Victoria & Albert Museum, London, 1950/1959.
In this early out-of-print booklet, 27 black-and-white captioned photographs illustrate examples of antique English Early Stuart silver in the Victoria and Albert Museum in London.   “The plate of the Early Stuart Period was marked by continuous change both in the form and he decoration, therein contrasting strongly with the almost static Elizabethan and Charles II work.”  This informative booklet, a collector’s item in itself, is an invaluable resource reference work. A typical museum text, the captioned photography is superb and the terse text is concisely rich.  This is one book in a series published by the museum about fifty years ago on the various styles of antique English silver.
4.75” x 7.1” stapled softback booklet in very good condition.  32 pages.
