About This Item
Collections Baur, Genève, 1984 Book. Fine. Hardcover. 1st Edition. English and French text.; Hardcover (cloth with dust jacket in slipcase); 24 x 30 cm; 1.8 Kg; 200 pages with colour and black and white illustrations throughout.; ISBN: 2-88031-004-X.; Limited edition of 1600 copies, of which this is 565.; Used book in very good condition. Looks as new. Minor signs of wear on the slipcase and the dust jacket..;"This volume is the ninth in the General Catalogue of the Baur Collection, and the fourth to be devoted to Japanese objects. It groups various series of lacquers, leaving aside pipe-cases. This catalogue, which only presents about a third of the objects in the inventory will I hope reflect as faithfully as possibly the totality of the collection: the numerical ratio of the different kinds of boxes (tea caddies, incense holders, writing boxes, inro, etc.) and of signed and unsigned pieces." excerpt from the introduction by Pierre F.Schneeberger (keeper of the Baur Collection)..
