Profusely ... moreillustrated with black and white photographic plates A significant moment in the history of the Modern Movement. Die Form ohne Ornament(Form without ornament) was an exhibition held by the Deutscher Werkbund(DWB) in 1924. The accompanying book became the first in their famous series of publications titled Bucher Der Form(Books on Form) The DWB was a colloboration of designers united by the rejection of Art Nouveau/Jugendstil in favour of purer forms reflecting mass production. Luminaries Bruno Paul. Peter Behrens, Richard Riemerschmidt, Josef Maria Olbrich and Wiener Werkstätte founder Josef Hoffmann were all among its founder members. The book. Which is full of black and white photographic plates, was remarkable at the time of publication in its exclusive celebration of artistic endeavour in the decorative arts inspired by industrial production. It features some important works from the Wiener Werkstatte and the early Weimar Bauhaus. Size: Approximately 19cm x 26cm Condition: Good to very good.

ANTIQUE NEW ENGLAND QUEEN ANNE CHIPPENDALE AMERICAN FURNITURE at WINTERTHUR
New England Furniture at Winterthur. Queen Anne and Chippendale Periods” By Nancy E. Richards& Nancy Goyne Evans. Published by Winterthur in 1997. description continues below the picture- DISCUSSION: A thorough catalog of the New England Queen Anne and Chippendale furniture at Winterthur. Replacing Joseph Downs' 1952 classic catalog of this collection. In addition to new photographs and descriptions, and some new attributions, there is much additional furniture which was purchased after 1952. The catalog is divided into sections covering-seating furniture-bedsteads-tables-stands and fire screens-dressing tables& high chests-chests of drawers, bureau tables& chests on chests-desks-looking& dressing glasses-case studies, or, furniture that is not what it seems) The Winterthur website notes- Almost 60 years ago. Collector ... moreand horticulturist Henry Francis du Pont(1880–1969) opened his childhood home, Winterthur, to the public. Today, Winterthur is the premier museum of American decorative arts, with an unparalleled collection of nearly 90,000 objects made or used in America between about 1640 and 1860. The collection is displayed in the magnificent 175-room house, much as it was when the du Pont family lived here, as well as in permanent and changing exhibition galleries. Winterthur is set amidst a 1,000-acre preserve of rolling meadows and woodlands. Designed by du Pont, its 60-acre naturalistic garden is among America’s best, with magnificent specimen plantings and massed displays of color. Graduate programs and a preeminent research library make Winterthur an important center for the study of American art and culture. In his later years, du Pont wrote: I sincerely hope that the Museum will be a continuing source of inspiration and education for all time, and that the gardens and grounds will of themselves be a country place museum where visitors may enjoy as I have, not only the flowers, trees and shrubs, but also the sunlit meadows, shady wood paths, and the peace and great calm of a coun

Book: ART NOUVEAU FURNTURE BY EMILE GALLE -ANTIQUE FRENCH FURNITURE
Galle Furniture” By Alastair Duncan& Georges de Bartha. Published by the Antique Collectors' Club in 2012. description continues below the picture- DISCUSSION: Emile Galle was one of the great names of the Art Nouveau movement in France. And founder of the famous Ecole de Nancy. A polymath and committed social activist, he was best known for his glasswork and faience. Furniture became his third discipline after experimenting with the manufacture of wooden bases on which he could mount his glass vases. Following the French tradition of furniture decoration known as marqueterie, his work is characterised by its meticulous decorative veneers, stained with subtle organic dyes; and panels inlaid with stunningly intricate country scenes and flowers. This important book outlines all of Galle's major works of furniture, from the pieces ... moreuniques that were designed for an exclusive clientele, to those displayed between 1889 and 1904 at the annual Paris Salons and two World Expositions. The recent emergence of many of his objets de luxe enables the reader to understand many of his pieces for the first time. Written by Decorative Arts specialist Alastair Duncan, Galle Furniture documents the history of Galle's furniture production from his favourite motifs to the ways in which he used furniture design to express his social and political ideals. Duncan includes an encyclopedic range of models created in the Galle Workshops both during and after his lifetime. Beautifully illustrated, and containing translations of Galle's'Notes to the Juries' of the World Expositions, this stunning publication will leave the reader captivated by this remarkable expression of the new art that changed the European aesthetic forever. DESCRIPTION: Hardcover. 9”x12” 368 pages, 449 color and 271 black& white illustrations, dust jacket. CONDITION NOTES: In fine. New condition.

2 VOLUME SET ON ANTIQUE AMERICAN FURNITURE - EDGAR G. MILLER CLASSIC
An American Furniture Classic- American Antique Furniture. A Book for Amateurs” By Edgar G. Miller. Jr. Published in New York by New York Dover Publications in 1966. description continues below the picture- DISCUSSION: A re-issue of the first trade edition of this classic text. Published in 1937. Perhaps classic collection of pictures is a better description, as what Miller set out to do was create an encyclopedic survey of American furniture forms and styles down to“about 1840” In this he succeeded, drawing heavily on many private collections in the Baltimore area as well as other archives. Semowich notes that“it is still considered a standard reference book” whose“usefulness lies in its photographs” and Homer Eaton Keyes, editor of the Magazine Antiques, praised the book in its Foreword as a good tool to acquiring“the fundamental knowledge ... moreessential to a correct stylistic analysis of any reasonably pure example of old-time American furniture” Keyes went on to tackle one problem with all the pictorial surveys of the era in one of his better flights of literary fancy. Noting that“Not without some guile, I believe, Mr. Miller parades a thoroughly democratic furniture group in which high aristocrats of cabinetmaking consort amicably with honest bourgeois types, and even an occasional upstart of uncertain lineage and doubtful integrity is tolerated if his outward demeanor conforms to a certain accepted minimum of propriety” Nutting has been criticized for the same failing, but not in such velvet-trimmed words. DESCRIPTION: Softcover. 2 volumes. 8”x10.5” 1,106 pages, 2,115 black& white illustrations. CONDITION NOTES: The covers have some wear and rubbing(please see the photos. Above and below) The books themselves have some minor wear, but otherwise are clean and nice, with tight bindings.

ANTIQUE ENGLISH FURNITURE -THOMAS B. CLARKE COLLECTION AT TIFFANY STUDIOS -1907
A Collection of English Furniture of the XVII and XVIII Centuries” By Luke Vincent Lockwood. Published in New York by Tiffany Studios in 1907. Limited to 500 copies. description continues below the picture- DISCUSSION: Thomas B. Clark was one of the most noted American collectors of his era. A member of the Walpole Society, correspondent of many other noted collectors, and collector of furniture, rugs, art and many other fine things. This is the catalog of his collection of 17th and 18th century English furniture, catalogued by the dean of American furniture historians, Luke Vincent Lockwood, sold to Tiffany Studios, and exhibited at their New York City showrooms. Some of the pieces were sold to museums and collectors, and then the remainder were sold at auction in 1910 when Tiffany Studios needed more space for its artisans. Each piece is ... moreillustrated in a clear black and white photograph and described by Lockwood, and although much furniture research has gone on since 1906, this limited edition catalog remains an intriguing and elegant reminder of the first Great Days of antique collecting. Winterthur. Which holds many of Clarke's papers, notes- Thomas Benedict Clarke, 1848-1931, of New York City was a noted collector of American paintings, Chinese porcelain, and other antiques. He served as president of the New York School of Applied Design for Women, chairman of the Union League Club’s art committee, treasurer of the National Society of Arts, and was a founding member of both the National Sculpture Society and the National Arts Club. Although Clarke was a linen dealer by trade, he always had a strong interest in the arts. As early as 1872, Clarke began collecting works by American artists. At the age of forty, in 1888, Clarke retired from the linen business to devote himself to the arts and established himself as a full-time dealer in Chinese porcelain and Greek art. By October 1891, Clarke had opened Art House, a gallery on Fifth Avenue in New York devoted to the sale of Chinese and Japanese ceramics

This is NOT a"how to do it" handbook that will show you how to repair joints and refinish tops-it is. Rather, a guide as to why and how wooden objects deteriorate, what you can do about it, what you cannot do about it, and what information that you may have heard is true and false(for instance, the concept that you need to'feed' wood to keep its moisture content intact is inaccurate and potentially damaging) It was written to give the collector the basic information needed to decide how ... moreto care for a collection, or how to proceed when there is damage. Topics covered include Ethics, Wood, Finishes, Paint, Gesso, Gilt, Adhesives, Humidity, Temperature, Light, Biological Deterioration(bugs& mildew) Pollutants& Dirt, Chemical Deterioration, and Accidents. An excellent starting point which lays the groundwork for further study. DESCRIPTION: Softcover. 5.5"x8.5" 32 pages. CONDITION NOTES: In fine. Clean condition.

Knopf in 1970. description continues below the picture- DISCUSSION: An essential work. And one of the classic books showing how to analyze and understand a piece of furniture. It is Kirk's gift to be able to see furniture and to communicate his understanding of the form and ornament to others. This introduction remains the best guide to the essential skill of learning to look" Ames& Ward) John T. Kirk is one of the preeminent furniture historians of the 20th century. Winterthur, which holds some of his research papers, notes- John T. Kirk is a noted scholar specializing in American furniture and the Shakers. His father was a builder and most enjoyed the work of restoring old houses. ... moreThis stimulated John Kirk’s interest in old buildings and antiques, and eventually he even restored a couple of old homes himself. Kirk became a journeyman cabinetmaker and studied furniture design. He then received his bachelor’s degree from Earlham College and earned a master’s degree in art history from Yale University. He was a professor at Boston University for many years, and retired as emeritus professor of art history. Mr. Kirk has been a consultant curator for several historic house museums and a director of the Rhode Island Historical Society. He was the curator for three exhibits of Shaker furniture and materials and one on Connecticut furniture.

Published by the Harvard University Press in 1941. description continues below the picture- DISCUSSION: The first edition of this well illustrated and important catalog of this major collection of American furniture. Silver and accessories. This beautifully printed volume, set in Monotype Bembo and with full-tone collotype illustrations, established a high visual standard for furniture catalogs that was emulated by Joseph Downs in the 1950s and Morrison Hecksher in the 1980s. The catalog includes 125 examples of high-style furniture, the vast majority from Massachusetts ... moreand Rhode Island, although some superb Philadelphia objects are included. These objects are not included in Richard Randall's 1965 catalog. Karolik's musings, As I Reflect upon the Collection" provide a fascinating look at the mind of an idiosyncratic collector" Ames& Ward. Maxim Karolik(1893-1963) was a Russian opera singer. Immigrant, and art collector and benefactor who cut a swath through the Boston and American collecting scenes. The magnificent bequests of American furniture and paintings he and his wife made to Boston's Museum of Fine Arts earned them a place in the pantheon of Boston's patrons of the arts, and their rediscovery and championing of the works of Fitz Hugh Lane and Martin Johnson Heade, along with 19th century American fine and folk artists earned them a place in American collecting lore. The Karoliks deflected such honors, and in an open letter to the MFA's Director, Maxim Karolik declared"We are not'Patrons of Art' or'Public Benefactors. We refuse to accept these banal labels. We accept with pleasure only one label: Useful' Semowich 1352. DESCRIPTION: Hardcover. 9.25"x12" 366 pages

MUSEUM OF EARLY SOUTHERN DECORATIVE ARTS - ANTIQUE AMERICAN FURNITURE & ANTIQUES
Southern Perspective. A Sampling from the Museum of Early Southern Decorative Arts” Edited by Gary J. Albert. Published by MESDA in 2005. description continues below the picture- DISCUSSION: A wonderful survey of 40 objects- furniture. Ceramics, silver, paintings, from the MESDA collection. Out of print as hardcover. MESDA's website notes- MESDA is the realization of a vision shared by two extraordinary individuals: Frank L. Horton and his mother Theodosia"Theo" L. Taliaferro. Who were pioneering antiques dealers and collectors who dedicated most of their lives to raising awareness of and appreciation for domestic objects made in the South. During the first half of the twentieth century, southern antiques were mostly dismissed by scholars and ignored by collectors. A movement to challenge the existing attitudes began in 1949 ... morewith the first Williamsburg Antiques Forum at Colonial Williamsburg in Virginia, which included a seminal session that called attention to the lack of information about southern craftsmanship. The intense study of specifically southern antiques began with the 1952 Williamsburg Antiques Forum, which coincided with the first definitive exhibition of southern furniture, Furniture of the Old South, 1640- 1820 at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts in Richmond, and culminated with the opening of MESDA in 1965. The results of the museum's efforts to fulfill its mission have extended well beyond the exhibition of the collection to include groundbreaking field research programs, award-winning publications, a respected research center and decorative arts library, and exceptional educational programs such as the Graduate Summer Institute cosponsored by MESDA and the University of Virginia.

Including 17th century, Queen Anne, Chippendale, and Federal furniture, and related folk art. Under the guidance of Israel Sack and other leading specialists the Meyer's assembled a spectacular collection of superlative examples of American cabinetmaking, which are amply celebrated in this book. Unsurprisingly, a year after publishing this book about the collection, Sotheby's auctioned off the collection itself. The January 14. 1996 issue of Britain's The Independent reported- The sale next Saturday of the ... morebest collection of American furniture to come on the market for 20 years- the Mr and Mrs Adolf Henry Meyer collection- is a big event. The auction at Sotheby's New York is expected to generate fierce competition between aficionados. Adolf Meyer and his wife Ginger began to collect in the 1950s. They had just moved into a house furnished by Ginger's aunt(in Victorian style) when Ginger stopped off in Birmingham, Michigan, at the antique store of one Jes Pavey, an American furniture enthusiast. He saw some fake antique fire irons in the back of the car and pointed them out. What can I do? asked Mrs Meyer, horrified. Pavey sold her a genuinely old set. Two days later, she rang Pavey and said, Would you hurry over? he recalls. She said: Mr Meyer is here and getting ready to go to the office. Come over and drive in the driveway, so he can't get out. Before Pavey left, he'd been commissioned to redo the house in American style. Meyer told me, When you find something you think fits in this house, we'll discuss it and send you a cheque. He wanted the best. According to the Meyers' grandson, Pavey was 99 per cent responsible for the collection. Adolf Meyer was bor
