hardcover. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

Hardcover. Condition: New. The Royal Collection of fans is unique. Rather than being purchased by connoisseurs, nearly all the fans were created for or presented to their original royal owners, and have an unbroken provenance almost without precedent in the history of fan collecting. This lavishly illustrated book, the first on the subject, written from within the Royal Collection, presents the most beautiful, important and historically interesting fans, together with the stories of their creation, acquisition and biographical information on their owners. The fans range from a lace-cut leather fan, said to have belonged to Charles I, to three fans made in the workshops of Carl Fabergà . There are examples in every material conceivable, from paper and lace to ivory, mother-of-pearl, jay and ostrich feathers, enamel and precious stones, and of every type, from the decorative to the topographical, from commemorative fans to tiny miniatures and intimate personal gifts. A general introduction provides background information on the history of fans and on this collection in particular, while detailed descriptions and specially commissioned color photography highlight aspects of design and manufacture. Archive and contextual paintings, drawings, prints and photographs supplement the historical background, while a further important feature of the book is the full description of each fan, giving complete provenance and technical details, following scientific examination, together with a glossary of specialist terms, bibliography, and index.

Prudence Sutcliffe was Assistant Curator of the Print Room in the Royal Library, Windsor Castle, and is widely respected as the leading authority on the fans in the Royal Collection.Susan Mayor was head of the Textile Department and a Director of Christie's, South Kensington.
