Les arts du tissu : étoffes - tapisseries - broderies -dentelles - reliures
Les arts du tissu is an 1890 Paris survey of textile arts, including fabrics, tapestries, embroidery, lace and bookbinding, written by Alfred de Champeaux and published by Bibliothèque de la Gazette des beaux-arts and J. Rouam for collectors and students of decorative art. Its pictures are fine line engravings of ornamental panels, a lace-edged collar and a black ground textile design with white scrollwork, showing dense foliate and arabesque patterns a designer could adapt for borders, damask-style repeats and decorative bands.
