Textile fabrics, wearing apparel, and accessories : Universal Exposition at Paris, 1889 : report on group IV
This is an official United States report on textile, clothing and accessory exhibits at the 1889 Universal Exposition in Paris, written by William Henry Chandler and A. Van Bergen and published in Washington by the Government Printing Office in 1893 for trade officials and manufacturers. Its plates show photographic and engraved reproductions of jewelled necklaces, a pendant, and an ornate chased silver tray with floral and scrolled borders. A designer might take from them the radiating open-work cluster patterns of diamond jewellery and the dense symmetrical scroll-and-flower borders of Victorian metalwork.
