EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: A Peek into the Past: Ornate Papier Mâché and Chinoiserie Style Objects from an 1885 Catalogue 2. Description: This image is a page extracted from an unknown 1885 catalogue, published in London by an unidentified company. The catalogue, measuring 36.7 x 27.3 cm, is filled with 41 pages of intriguing and diverse items, including black and white illustrations of writing equipment, purses, toys, perambulators, bicycles, and tricycles, as well as ornate papier mâché and chinoiserie style products. The page in question showcases an array of exquisitely designed items, arranged in a vertical, story-like fashion. At the top left, a delicate papier mâché nesting box, adorned with intricate floral patterns, rests on a table. To the right, a beautifully ornate inkstand, complete with a silber inkwell and pen holder, sits atop a shelf. Further down the page, a series of tables display various chinoiserie style objects, such as a small, intricately painted vase and a pair of ornate, vertical-striped boxes. The page concludes with an illustration of a silber-handled writing set, nestled within a black, ornate case. This page offers a glimpse into the rich and ornate world of consumer goods from the late 19th century. The intricately designed objects, from the delicate papier mâché boxes to the elegant writing sets, evoke a sense of elegance and craftsmanship that is both timeless and enchanting. 3.
