About the Item

A beautiful hardback book which is in very good condition, with its dust jacket. Linke is considered by many to have been the greatest Parisian cabinet maker of his day when the worldwide influence of French fashion was at its height. Linke together with sculptor Leon Message created highly original designs based on the Rococo style fused with the latest fashion for "Art Nouveau". One of his major clients was the King of Egypt, for whom he created over a thousand items in the 1920s and 1930s. The appendices give a rare insight into the technical processes and materials involved in the production of bronze-mounted furniture and marquetry. 527 pages profusely illustrated throughout. 3030 grams.
