About the Item

Les Opalines by Christine Vincendeau. Les Editions de l'Amateur 1998. First edition hardcover with dust jacket. 190p with many color illustrations. Now considered the bible on opaline glass. Opaline glass was a decorative style of glass made in France from 1800 to the 1890s, though it reached its peak of popularity during the reign of Napoleon III in the 1850s and 1860s. The quality of the illustrations make this book a great reference even though it has a French text. NPT Books, a division of N.P. Trent Antiques, has a large collection of used and out of print books on art, architecture, decoration and antiques with a focus on 1st editions, signed and limited editions.
