Slade, Felix, 1790-1868 · 1871 · [London] Printed for private distribution · 6 pictures

A privately printed 1871 London catalogue of Felix Slade's collection of glass, compiled by Slade himself for private distribution to his circle of collectors. Its plates are engraved line drawings of individual glass vessels, shown in close detail with ornament, enamelling and gilding picked out in fine hatching. A designer could draw on the cut, gilt and enamelled patterns, such as scrolls, medallions and quatrefoil lattice, for surface decoration or historical ornament.
