About This Item
New York: Panache Press/Clarkson Potter, 1992. From the publisher's description, "Elsie de Wolfe is a legend in the world of style. Founding Mother of the decorating profession at the turn of the century, she remained its most famous and successful practitioner for fifty years. She made chintz chic, raised stripes to stardom, bought trellis indoors, put fine French furniture on the map-and leopard print on chairs, cushions, and carpets. Engagingly written and chockablock with photographs and color renderings of her own work and of rooms by contemporary designers that echo her ideas. Captures both the spirit and the substance -and presents an original, uniquely stylish view of a truly unique woman." A sharp, bright copy of this important book.. 1st Printing. Hard Cover. Near Fine/DJ Near Fine. Small Quarto.

About Browse Awhile Books
We've provided used and out-of-print books to western Ohio readers and collectors since 1980 through our retail store. We have been an active online bookseller since 1997, when we were among the first generation of Bibliofind and ABE vendors. We work hard to offer a variety of interesting books, priced competitively, graded and described honestly, delivered promptly and pleasantly. Our 2,000+ square feet shop is located in the heart of the Old Tipp City Historic District, among more than 50 antique and arts shops. We're open 11AM-5PM Tuesday through Friday and 11AM-4PM Saturday. We're a two-minute drive from I-75, about 15 minutes north of Dayton, Ohio. Our current inventory consists of approximately 200,000 books, about 1/3 of which are in the online inventory. A word about descriptions...we attempt to grade and describe books as accurately as possible, so that you will know exactly what you are buying. We want our customers to order with confidence and to reorder with pleasure - if you receive anything other than what you expect, we prefer that it is because we've exceeded your expectations. Many of our books are described as being within Brodart covers or protective sleeves. These are the sort of clear covers that you find on library books, though (of course!) we do not affix them to the book in any way. Virtually all dust-jacketed books are within Brodart covers, whether so described or not.
