"L'Eventail et la Fourrure chez Paquin"
Paris: Maquet (pour Paquin), 1911.


(19 3/8" x 13 11/16") 28pp. 8 illustrations.
(7 hors text. 1 in text.)
General condition: Good. Exterior: Sound. Interior: Clean.
Plates bound as issued in original decorated covers; front cover designed by Iribe, featuring a lovely pochoir-colored flower. Some usual darkening with age, very slight
rubbing to back cover; spine seems to have had restoration.

After Paul Poiret's extremely successful albums, it is the House of Paquin's turn to commission the era's very best artists to feature the latest fashion designs and accessories. This beautiful album, showing 3 designs for fans and
3 for fur coats, contains 7 full-page illustrations, colored in pochoir. The title page, furthermore, features a black and white vignette by Lepape and there are remarques throughout. This copy, one of only 300 published, with a small anonymous sketch, tipped onto first page.

Light offsetting, not affecting any images, and some wear to the tissue guards; overall a beautiful copy.
