$29.95 Shipping Location: El Segundo, United States Psalm 44. Antique 17th century hand calligraphy on vellum, tab mounted and framed. The Psalm of Communal Lament" We are very please to be able to ... moreoffer for your consideration this professionally tab mounted and framed 17th Century vellum of Psalm 44 The calligraphy on this vellum is hand penned. Our expert tells us it was most likely taken from a privately owned, and or, commissioned book of Psalms. We believe this because it is without illumination, and markings for musical notations. It is beautifully mounted on a fabric back board with corner tab mounts. The vellum is scribed in Latin, on both sides, or recto inverso. Shadows of the letters on the reverse side can be faintly seen through the text of the front. From the look of the font style, the peculiar punctuation, and the vellum used, our expert dates it to the 17th century. The passage is a portion of Psalm 44, or the Psalm of Communal Lament. According to our Latin translator it is verses 9 through 13. In these verses, the Psalmist laments that God has been slow to act, and has a responsibility to save these people from their enemies. The frame measures 23 1/8 inches wide. By 30 1/2 inches tall, by 1 5/8 inches deep. The frame is nice and deep, providing adequate space to accommodate the ripples in the vellum. The frame is finished in a dark brown stain, and is distressed. The back is covered in heavy brown paper with sealed edges. This piece weighs approximately 8 pounds.

Vellum Books #2, 5 volumes RAVISHING BEAUTIES CALLIGRAPHY DECORATION AMBIENCE
Further to the listing title: four of these volumes are 17th century. One is 18th. Sizes: 8 3/4" x 6 1/4" x 3/4" 8 x 5 1/4" x 1 1/4" 7 1/8" x 4 3/4" x 3/4" 7 x 5 x 1 6 1/4" x 3 1/2" x 1" Five absolutely gorgeous vellum beauties for your library. Living room, hallway, desktop, mantelpiece, anywhere where you can use a little poetry. And boy do they have it! Purchased in Venice and London twenty years ago for their sensationally mellow. Lyrical and indescribable color and tactile scrumptiousness, I am passing them on to decorators, lovers of beauty, and, should they be drawn to them, even book collectors. As for condition. The books are not in superlatively collectible condition, nor are they in tatters. There is slight evidence of internal worming, a separated hinge, and other issues. ... moreI am selling these for their exteriors. The title pages are shown to give a hint of their subject matter. Book collectors wishing to know more must state so before bidding and ask pertinent questions. In the sixteenth through early 19th centuries. One would buy the text block(pages) of one's book from the bookseller's, then proceed to the bindery to choose one's binding. Leather with the title stamped on the spine was expensive; goatskin with the title hand-lettered, less so. The irony is that leather rots and dries out, meaning a great many of those early leather bindings are with us no more. Goatskin not only has incredible longevity, but, aesthetically speaking, improves with age. Both the goatskin itself. Which turns all shades of gloriousness from cream to deepest amber, and the ink on the spines, which oxidizes to ancient-looking umbers and sepias, lend the books a magic their binders probably never have dreamt of. If you use these to decorate. You will find your eye straying to them often, and your mind floating away. Yes, they are that exquisite. Please be sure to ask any and all questions that may affect your enjoyment of these books.
